The Muppets might be the best actors on screen, which makes directing them an absolute breeze. James Fawley plays the bartender of the El Sleezo Cafe in the 1979 film, The Muppet Movie. It was the first to be directed by someone other than Jim Henson or Frank Oz. He has one line, saying to Kermit the Frog "Maybe he should try Hare Krishna." Kermit responds by breaking the fourth wall saying "Grief! It's a running gag!"
