Wallace Ford was a veteran of many great films. He played the father of Shelley Winters in two of them: He Ran All the Way (1951) and A Patch of Blue (1965). In both films he gives memorable, sensitive, heartfelt performances. It’s good to see him remembered.

Quite a good actor. Charming in Freaks, very solid in The Informer. Such a tragic childhood! I had no idea. 😥
