Feast of Peter O'Toole
Peter O'Toole is an Irish actor who has been nominated for EIGHT Academy Awards, but never won. Not even for "Lawrence of Arabia", for cryin' out loud! Nor for "Becket", nor "Lion in Winter"! It's ridiculous, but he patiently and graciously continues to make movies.
Wait a second - he's still alive! How'd he get a Feast Day?
Oops. It's St. Lawrence O'Toole. But he was Irish too, and his first name is Lawrence just like in the title of the movie Peter DIDN'T get an Oscar for.
