when it came to acting warren oates was a true artist. he acted with his eyes, the wrinkles around his eyes, the lines on his face, his voice...every fiber of his being. he carried the history of his life and this country during his time on his face from the great depression to the beat generation...and beyond. he was also the embodiment of the old west when it had run out of time and was now civil and no longer wild.
warren oates is one of the greatest actors ever. two lane blacktop is an american classic. he was great in everything he ever appeared in. he was great on gunsmoke. he was great in race with the devil, ride the high country, the shooting, tom sawyer, the hired hand, badlands, stripes, the border, the wild bunch...the list goes on and on. like i previously stated, everything i ever saw him in. he would have been great in the last picture show. john
I knew a Steve Daniels back in 5th grade back in Atlanta, GA. Yes he "is" my father and am glad to see many on here still appreciate the man. Keep it going and let his spirit live.
I'm sorry I made such a stupid video. It is not an appropriate way to honor a great man like your father. If I could make something better I certainly would.
No, please don't worry! It is extremely hard to be satisfied with something like this - I should make a video about my dad, but I'd NEVER be satisfied with it! But look at the comments, see how you brought a lot of folks who enjoy Warren Oates together. That ain't bad. Even toates1963 agrees (my best to you too!).
you've changed me

Your dad is seriously one of my all time favorite actors. He's truly one of the Greats, and criminally underappreciated by mainstream knuckleheads.
(ps I'm not that Steve D. as I'm a tad younger and from SC).

Warren Oates was a king!
As "Corporal Langsford" in the Twilight Zone episode "The 7th Is Made Up Of Phantoms" he was fantastic!
His funny line in that episode,"Thats some tourist that don't dig Smokey the Bear" makes me laugh.
He was a great man!
