Personal Quote:
The whole business of marshaling one's energies becomes more and more important as one grows older. See more »Trivia:
During the shooting of There Was a Crooked Man... (1970) Cronyn was diagnosed with optic cancer which required the removal of an eye. Although this news upset director Joseph L. Mankiewicz very much, Cronyn was more than willing to work longer hours to complete his scenes and make him available for the necessary surgery. See more »Star Sign:
