Although nominated for numerous awards and receiving some
oscars, I believe he is a very under-rated actor in the eyes of the
general public. He generally is portraying a very likable character
- but the depth of his range includes one of the most sinister and
evil characters in film history Wait Until Dark. Personally, I think
his tour de force performance was as the deaf-mute in The Heart
Is a Lonely Hunter - which has finally been released on DVD. I am
still dumbfounded that he did not receive the Academy's Best
Actor Award for that role. Although he;s had a number of recent
appearances in featured roles, I fear they are the only ones for
which he'll generally be remembered, Most people today are only
interested in the most recent and popular as far as movies are
concerned and will most likely not even glance at a number of his
films which I;m sure will be true classics.

He should have won the Oscar for his roll as Lt. Rozanov
