My right ear is very lonely...

It's disgraceful that Richard Widmark was never awarded an Oscar! He deserved one! And the tragic Bella Darvi - concentration camp survivor, used and thrown away by Darryl F. Zanuck and his wife when she became inconvenient. Ended her life by committing suicide. Utterly tragic.

Great screen star. He'd be even bigger now I believe.

The marvelous Richard WIDMARK one of my favourite actors. Lovely gentle man and a superb actor.
-
@207nkf Well she was, but they divorced in the mid '80s.
-
I believe his daughter is married to Sandy Koufax..

@eheaven3 Ah but if Richard Widmark was even 40 years and one second he would be over 40. Or am I too pedantic. I agree, he was one of Hollywood's greatest screen villains and kindest persons in real life. I have only this morning watched his movie The Law and Jake Ward. Richard Widmark was brilliant. I see similarities
between Widmark and Frank Gorshin. I think Widmark would have been a fantastic Batman villain, perhaps, like Gorshin, The Riddler..

@crgreen53 Oh OK thanks for that my misunderstanding cheers for clearing that up
What a giant of cinema the late great Richard Widmark was. It's a shame he never won an Oscar....not even an honorary one. At least he lived to a ripe old age (into his 90's) & had one of Hollywood's longest marriages. It's peachy to see so many of my favorite performers on this show, thanks to YouTube. THANKS for posting this! May you & all visitors here have a peaceful & prosperous New Year! :)

In films, he usually portrayed a bad guy. In life, though, he was a good guy. Stood up to McCarthyism. That took guts. Later, he made fine films. "Judgement At Nuremberg" and "Murder On The Orient Express" to name but two. Narried for 55 years to the playwright Jean Hazlewood. Their daughter married the great Sandy Koufax. Dorothy asks if he's OVER 40 and Richard correctly answered no because he wasn't "OVER 40" he WAS precisely 40 when this show aired. Widmark was a high mark for Hollywood!
