A lot of people thought Robert Mitchum was too old to play Pug, but I thought he was great.
He was a bit old, but I think he was to be a man in his early 50s, so Mitchum fit the bill. With a nickname like Pug, one would assume the man to be shorter, but Mitchum was a big man...at least on the screen.
Loved the series and the books.
The Pug Henry part required and Robert Mitchum supplied GRVITAS
