Personal Quote:

[from a 1991 interview] I don't like my work in films. The parts aren't very good and I need a good part. I can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear and I don't like playing small parts. It's all so fragmented and you have no control. Everything out there is a business. See more »

Trivia:

His first theatre role was in 1945 when he played a miner in Emlyn Williams's The Corn is Green at the Crossroads Theatre in Virginia. See more »
