Lawrence Tierney Film
11 March 2008
Always enjoyed seeing Lawrence Tierney in the film, "Dillinger" and how evil he looked and cold blooded as he portrayed John Dillinger. In this film, Tierney plays the role as Ivan Yates who is involved in trying to secure a computer chip which involves nuclear power and he is constantly having people killed who get in his way. Ivan has problems with breathing and needs oxygen whenever he gets upset or has an attack and he also manages to have very sexy young women around him at all times. I must mention the fact that Ivan is carrying around a great deal of weight and he is completely bald and ugly. Lawrence Tierney played these types of roles because he really was a man who grew up in New York City and grew up with rough and tough kids. When Lawrence Tierney's career was at an end in the 1960's I use to see him in a local bar on Broadway wearing a hard hat after working in construction. In this film, Tierney was 72 years of age and did an outstanding job as the star of this picture. Enjoy.
