@RichardElden If he wasn't, then he sure was a great PERFORMER. He was the picture of laid back cool. He had a beautiful, if limited voice, that could work wonders as it was propelled by that great personality. His audience adored him, and kept him on top throughout his career.
This clip was from Dean's 1975 special on NBC called 'Deans' Lounge' which had Dino welcoming a number of celebrity guests to his real restaurant/lounge located,
I believe, in Los Angeles. Among the other guest were Ronald & Nancy Reagan.
Too bad Dino and Mitchum never made another movie together after 'Five Card Stud'.
Don't remember ever seeing this. Looks like a scene from Martin's weekly TV series (obviously). You can see Martin's practiced at dealing cards. These guys started out at about the same time, with Mitchum's first movie in 1943 and singer Martin's teaming with stage comic Jerry Lewis in 1946. Mitchum, like Clark Gable a decade earlier, started as a bearded villain with a great voice in a William "Hopalong Cassidy" Boyd western. Mitchum looks worlds better in a beard but seldom wore one again.
Amazing. The coolness factor of these guys is off the scale.

These guys were cool, bad ass boys. They smoked, drank, had fun, gambled and fooled around and still they had class. Solid guys.
They would never have fallen for all this politically correct bullshit of today.

I always thought that Dino was the king of cool, the be all end all, the end! But side by side, there's no comparison...Mitchum wins hands down :)
