I remember him best from Baby Doll. However much scandal it stirred up he was fantastic. He had bigger roles and he had better roles but I remember that as one of the ones he did great work in.

didnt he deal some poker to McQueen in Cincinnati Kid?

[NormsRevenge]

Yup. He had a nose for some mighty powerful roles and performances.

Another one? Wow. What’s happening?

RIP Karl Malden.

Its a good thing I'm not famous or maybe....AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!

Malden was a great character actor, never being the lead. Movies he was in include: Streetcar Named Desire, On the Waterfront, One-Eyed Jacks, Patton, Baby Doll, How the West Was Won, and Gypsy.

This wasn’t one of his bigger roles, but I loved him as the preacher in Pollyanna.

70 yrs. I believe that is the longest lived marriage in Hollywood history.

He was terrific. I really liked him in Patton. “George, you are a pain in the . . . .” :-))

Best Movie: “One-Eyed Jacks” and “Patton” (played Omar Bradley to the hilt according to many old vets)
