Q: Was the Humphrey Bogart movie "The Harder They Fall" based on anything?
It may have been based on a couple of things, actually.
"The Harder They Fall" (1956), one of the great boxing movies and film legend Humphrey Bogart's last picture, was based directly on the novel of the same name by Budd Schulberg. However, Schulberg's book is allegedly a fictionalized take on the career of real-life prize fighter Primo Carnera.
Carnera himself sued Columbia Pictures, saying the movie was based on him and didn't put him in a very good light, but he lost the suit.
MacGyver, on CBS
Lucas Till stars as the eponymous secret agent in this reboot of the iconic series. MacGyver works for a clandestine organization within the U.S. government with hacker Riley Davis (Tristin Mays) and protection from Desi Nguyen (Levy Tran).

Q: What happened to William Petersen after he left "CSI"?
William Petersen, best known as Gil Grissom in CBS's procedural smash "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," was never a prolific screen actor. Deadline.com once called him "one of those highly selective actors who never wore out his welcome."
He seemed to take that to extremes with "CSI." He was so concerned with wearing out his welcome that he left the show early, and then mostly dropped out of the screen biz in favor of theatrical acting back in Chicago, where he got his start.
