RIP, Mr. Robertson. Main movie roles I remember him in are JFK in “PT109”, William Holden’s rival for Kim Novak’s affections in “Picnic” and the James Stewart role in the 1975 partial remake of Hitchcock’s “Vertigo” called “Obsession”. Also, he was married at one time to the lovely Dina Merrill(”Operation Petticoat”, “The Courtship of Eddie’s Father”, “The Desk Set”). I need to watch “Obsession” again to honor his memory.
Forgot to mention his being Spiderman’s uncle.
