Oscar-winning (1994's Ed Wood) actor Martin Landau was in Chicago this past weekend as the special guest at the Chicago International Film Festival for a Sunday screening of his new movie, Lovely, Still.

I met Landau as he arrived at his downtown hotel with his daughter and grandson. He signed one autograph for myself and for two other collectors and then posed for this shot.

Landau, who is best known for his roles in Mission Impossible and in Space: 1999, was Gene Roddenberry's first choice to play Spock on Star Trek.
