Aquamarine Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 Had no idea he was born in NYC. And had forgotten how great he was in Braveheart. Even though it was so long ago, I still remember him best for The Prisoner--so much ahead of its time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

punksandwich Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I don't know? did strike me has unusual I mean he DID die in California, but I'd still give him the benefit of the doubt. Actually I didn't have a doubt anyway. He didn't ever come off as a Rock Hudson type, handsome yeah, but you know what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
