Personal Quote:
[1987 comment on John Huston] I kinda loved John. He was like a second father to me in many ways, which I know may sound odd considering I was 45 when I first worked with him, but when you had to say goodbye there was always this feeling of loss, that terrible sadness that you'd be deprived of his company. I've seen more films by him than anybody else on the planet. See more »Trivia:
He was originally considered for the role of Pasha in Doctor Zhivago (1965). However, David Lean was bitter about him turning down Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and vetoed him. Tom Courtenay was cast instead. See more »Trademark:
His versatility as an actor and range of voices and accentsNickname:
