There isn't a scarier villain in all of film than Tommy Udo:

"You leave my family alone, Tommy!"
"Whattaya mean? Kids like to have fun...."
Also, Widmark was awesome in Judgment at Nuremberg. And don't forget Night and the City and that Elia Kazan movie about him trying to stop Bubonic Plague. The name escapes me right now....
"Panic in the Streets"

I just like Richard Widmark is all. Strange thing is, I was about to do something similar on Robert Ryan, but now I shall not. Will watch Pickup on South Street.
ReplyDeleteDo your Robert Ryan post. Le Cram doesn't mind.

Thanks, Le Cram, for spotting that I Love Lucy reference. I love Lucy! She was a genius, and so was that show, and Richard Widmark was great to share his grapefruits like that...what a good sport. And, sorry, this guy (known as "That Guy") is not that guy (known as "This Guy").
ReplyDeleteThat Guy-
ReplyDeleteNo problem.
All this this guy that guy stuff is making this guy's (Le Cram)head hurt!
