  Rod Steiger ... he had to leave Hollywood looking for more demanding roles
  
  that award in 1967 was sort of a fluke ... surprised the hell out of him

      I'm pretty sure that Terry Malloy said that to Charley Malloy
      
      different movie?

                  a young lady I knew saw Last Tango while it was still in theaters
                  
                  ... during a discussion about the film with a group of friends she asked the most clueless, yet charming question, greeted by a round of guffaws: 'what was he doing with that tub of cheese spread?'
                  
                  what indeed
                  
                  regards,

    'The Court-Martial of Billy Mitchell'?
    
    He was brilliant and VERY young.

      agreed ... that film has quite a cast
      
      it seems like 1/2 of the Hollywood contingent that went to TV is in it
      
      he was very poignant in 'The Pawnbroker' ... I think he snagged an Oscar nomination for it ?
      
      even as the Illustrated Man in a 'B' movie he was great
      
      with regards,
