Tony once went to acting school in New York. One of his classmates was Walter Matthau. After Criss Cross, Tony's next movie was filmed in NY. After a day of filming, a limo was taking the actors home. Tony had the driver take him to his old acting school. There Tony saw Walter (still a struggling actor) standing in front of the school. Tony had the limo go up to Walter. Tony rolled down the window and said to Walter "I fucked Yvonne De Carlo!" (which he did), and then had the driver take off.

Great clip! This is one of the best films noir. You've got to stay until the ending.

Tony! Such a gorgeous man, and a fantastic artist, too. I loved him in The Great Imposter. He lives in my town. Hi, Tony!
