I heard that Steve McQueen didn’t want to take the lead role in Bullitt because the character was a cop and most of McQueen’s fans at the time were hippies. I also heard McQueen turned down the lead role in Dirty Harry along with many other actors.
Thanks, Siren! I was ready for Gregory Peck’s villainy with all those li’l Hitler brats…far more efficient to save Hitler’s brain!…because I’d seen his Ahab. I know Ahab is an antagonist not a villain. I’ll definitely see that Kay Francis film.
I had already planned on watching some of these (ones I've not seen) but this helps convince me....
Ah, so my evil plan is working.
