He was very handsome and a great actor.

Sadly, he is almost forgotten today as his films seldom appear on the TV screen. A master of the Biopic.

“I am a fugitive from a chain gang “ is my favorite film of his along with “Juarez”.

Muni was such a chameleon in the parts he played. He completely disappeared into the character, he BECAME that role. Muni was serious and dedicated to his art. He was always very low-key, he never went in for the "Hollywood scene", the adoration and glamour. He was what they called "an actor's actor". And he was truly admired by his fellow actors. I don't think there will ever be another like him, a true genius at his craft.

I didn't understand the term "consummate actor" until I saw him in "The Good Earth" and "The Life of Emile Zola." ❤❤
