            <description>This guy was the ultimate scene stealer.  The most methodical of method actors.  Actually threw a beer in Brando&#x27;s face!!  Watch for him in The Wild One, The Killing, Paths Of Glory and his smoking in Crime Wave.  Off screen he was supposedly just as crazy, with a farting obsession.</description>

            <description>With over 300 movie and television roles, I sometimes feel he was in everything. He looked old even when he was young! He lived to be 102 years old.  One of his regrets is that he never got to ride a horse on screen.  He was an accomplished rider and even trained other actors. He was one of the last survivors of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.</description>

            <description>Most actors would love to have a career as long spanning as his! Only 5.5, feet tall he was known as Hollywood&#x27;s lightest heavy.  From roles in The Maltese Falcon, The Killing and Rosemary&#x27;s Baby to many television roles. Seeing ALF in a tent killed him! (Only on the show.)</description>

            <description>Typecast as an older than he was character, and a Sidney Greenstreet type. He tried too quickly to lose his large stature. (He lost over 100 pounds in a very short time!)  He never made it out of the 1940&#x27;s.  Born in 1913, he died in 1944, at 31 years old.  Vincent Price gave his eulogy.  He made his mark in his short career in films such as This Gun For Hire, with Alan Ladd, I Wake Up Screaming, Heaven Can Wait, and The Lodger.  It would have been interesting to see what kind of career he might have had, if he had lived longer.</description>

            <description>What a career this guy had!  Mr. Bissell appeared in more than 200 movies and television shows!  Known for his role in many &#x26;quot;cult&#x26;quot; films, such as 1957&#x27;s, I Was A Teenage Werewolf, in which he turned a young Michael Landon into a werewolf.  He also had roles in such films as Soylent Green, Airport, Hud, and The Magnificent Seven.  He served on the board of The Screen Actor&#x27;s Guild for 18 years. He passed away in 1996 at the age of 86.</description>

            <description>Known for his roles as the dim witted heavy, playing intimidating characters in such films as Murder My Sweet, Nightmare Alley and Some Like It Hot.  An ex wrestler turned actor who&#x27;s large stature and 6&#x27;5 frame led to an amazing career of 50 years! His real life persona was quite different.  He was very well read, highly intelligent and quite witty. He was still working at the age of 83 when he passed away in 1996.</description>

            <description>Not only a great character actor, but acting teacher as well!  Some of his students included Jack Nicholson, Kirk Douglas, and Anthony Hopkins.  Blacklisted by HUAC he didn&#x27;t work throughout most of the 1950&#x27;s.  He served in the US Navy in WW2.  He has been featured in many films such as The Killers, and Brute Force with Burt Lancaster, Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid, and television shows, The Outer Limits, Night Gallery and Barney Miller.</description>

            <description>One of those actors that always appeared old.  Played a rough edged, grizzled, crabby guy.  Actually died at the age of 71 in 1962!  He can be seen with Marlon Brando in The Wild One, Cape Fear, and Adam&#x27;s Rib, with Tracy and Hepburn.  Many television appearances including The Andy Griffith Show and Mr. Ed.</description>

Was orignally cast as Blondie in 1938, but lost the part.  Nominated for supporting role in 1961 for Summer Smoke, she also appeared with Haley Mills in The Parent Trap, 1961.</description>
