Mitchum was starting a movie with Loretta Young. After he swore, she approached him with a can. "What's this for?" he asked. She said it was her swearing can. She disapproved of bad language and any time anyone on the set swore, they had to put a quarter in the can (the money going to charity). Mitchum pulled out a $5 bill and put it in the can and said, "That should cover it for today."

Mitchum never lost his cool or his humble ways. His understated acting was unbelievable. His "Cape Fear" role was one of the most menacing I've ever seen...and the movie Night of the Hunter is breathtaking. The lid was closed on Hollywood greatness when this generation of actors passed on. Never be like this again.

He looks like the emphysema & lung cancer had taken its toll on him here...he’s lost a lot of weight, his glasses no longer fit & by this time, as usually happens, he may have developed brain cancer, like my dad...so..that’s perhaps why they finally decided they better give him this award! High time! He looks like he’s having a lot of trouble finding his words...also like the dementia my mother had. I’m so glad they finally decided...”well, it’s about time we honor this great actor & man!”

@@seanfitzpatrick4730 Yes, I totally agree. Mitchum was the better actor, more versatile. This is not to suggest that Wayne was bad, as he had some impressive moments. But, as I said, his range wasn't as broad as Mitchum's.

He's clearly bagged - but who cares, he's Robert Mitchum and there was a guy who lived life on his own terms. Back when actors of his type were "men".

He was better than all them They had no patience for him What a room of fakes Why didn’t Michael Caine learn and practice his introduction first? You can tell he is reading it for the first time from a teleprompter How disrespectful Again, Robert is above the men in the room I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.

Notice Michael Caine deftly pull him forward on the stage with the handshake, nice move, Mitchum half lost it on that last step up. That, unfortunately, is the end stage of a life of chain smoking and drinking.

/Yes, he was great. But I also believe that when you get down to it, he was just glad to get out of wages and be an actor because it was easy for him. And I do think here he was pissed as a pillow. He just didn't care. I wish I was more than Mitch. Praise for you, my dear friend. You didn't care but you were wonderful!

@bongofrenzy3036 жыл бұрын
He described himself as a journeyman which means he accepted his craft and recognised acting was a job like any other. That doesn't make him a cynic in the modern idiom.

Never fooled me.He pretented not to take his job serious or admitted that he was a talented actor.But the great directors he worked with and his co stars new better.He should have won the Oscar for Night of the Hunter,Mitchum was also much scarier than De Niro in the original Cape Fear,without raising his voice or overacting
