What Others Said

talisencrw: This hour-long look into the life and career of one of the best-known stars, who adored both film and theatre and made sure he continued in both, even when his Hollywood career was at its zenith, is an excellent extra I found on my blu of 'The Postman Always Rings Twice', which has a fine performance of his. Essential viewing for fans of his work, and has the loving involvement of one of his children, Julie.
