I read where Jack Elam was a cool guy off screen.
Back when bullets left no bullet holes, no blood.
I really liked his performance in Kansas City Confidential.
Tangle Eye.
“The four stages of my career:
1) Who is Jack Elam?
2) Get me Jack Elam.
3) Get me someone like Jack Elam.
4) Who is Jack Elam?”
Jack Elam
I loved him in support your local sheriff
Well, he must have recovered because he was gunned down again in “Once Upon A Time in the West.”
Parlayed playing the bad guy into a long career. Fun to watch work.
Susan Hayward. Hubba, hubba!
And Colt revolvers held at least 25 shots.
Jack Elam was also a proctologist to the stars, or so I saw in some movie.............
Jack Elam was a really really good bad man.
I bet very few saw the short lived TV show “The Texas Wheelers”, where Elam played a derelict, but good-hearted head of a household.
In one scene, he was hungover at the breakfast table while his kid was preparing for a history exam. The kid asked, “When did the Whiskey Rebellion begin?” Elam looked up and said, “About 6:30 this morning.”
Most of them were really great people back then.
Andy Devine, Slim Pickens, just to name a couple.
Believe it or not he started out as an accountant before he was an actor.
So did Bob Newhart. He said he wasn’t successful because his motto was “close enough”.
About 6:30 this morning.
LOL
1968. Starred James Stewart, Henry Fonda, Inger Stevens, Gary Lockwood, Dean Jagger, and, of course, Jack Elam.
