Eugene Levy's famiy[edit]

Eugene Levy comes from a Jewish family? Who knew? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.3.2.130 (talk) 04:46, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mighty Wind[edit]

Mighty Wind was an unexpected work of comic genius. Can't someone enlarge that section? Levy may have made money from the teen franchise but what the hell, as artistry it was nothing. Mighty Wind is his masterpiece. Take a look at the impassioned comments beneath A Kiss at the End of the Rainbow on Youtube. Levy had to write the music, play it, sing it, and perform the character! Sometimes a character runs away from its own authors. A Mighty Wind never stopped being comedy, but it worked on so many levels. Profhum (talk) 08:12, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Schooling[edit]

I'm also pretty sure Eugene Levy did not graduate from McMaster he only attended it briefly; he mentioned this during his speech after receiving an honorary degree from McMaster in 2006. Can this be verified?

He went to Central Secondary School in Hamilton.....he is pictured in the 1962/63, 63/64 school year book the "Criterion" (173.33.72.101 (talk) 21:23, 7 June 2015 (UTC))[reply]

Musical talents?[edit]

Does Levy play any of the instruments he's used with various characters over the years? For example, can he play the accordion or the guitar? Best regardsTheBaron0530 (talk) 13:58, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Article is Out of Date[edit]

This article says "is",etc. Shouldn't it say "was"? He's not active. I think he's been retired for years now, right? 73.6.96.168 (talk) 14:24, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
