it is with a heavy heart that trailer tuesday marks the passing of a grand old man. this week's entry is for mervyn leroy's no time for sergeants (1958), the film adaptation of the play that first brought andy griffith to prominence and the first time he worked with don knotts. so long, andy. we will miss you.
