The guy hated brussels sprouts!
He was hard of hearing in the right ear after a gun shot incident during the filming of a movie.

As a kid they called him "Dutch" either because his father said he looked like a little dutch boy or because the popular style of haircut for boys at the time was called "the dutch".
