Incredible! I thought he'd passed on already.
Unquestionably, one of film's best leading men of all time.
Besides "Spartacus", my favorites include "The Devil's Disciple", "Seven Days in May" and "Paths of Glory".

You mean they cut out 10,000 leagues?! Surely not the legendary fight with the giant squid!

Not seen it for a while, but can add The Vikings to the list. Great film, great actor.

That was back in 1958 were you born yet? ๐Ÿ˜‰ Agree it was a great film but didn't watch it until years later. ๐Ÿ˜‰ He produced that one also.

Yes that was a great yarn, spoiled somewhat by the miscast
pretty-boy Curtis against the gnarly Borgnine & Douglas.

Like the "Great Escape" it was on British tv every other year through the 70s

Wasn't he also in Spartacus?


His grandson was in federal prison for drugs. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Might still be there. I also heard he was a rat. It's amazing how far the apple can fall from the tree eh?
