I've always been impressed by the way he seemed to keep himself in good physical shape despite his age. He was 50 or 51 years old when he did the movie "Chato's Land" in 1972 playing a half breed Indian and I envied his great physique in that movie.

I remember watching his movies as a little girl and always wishing I had a father like him because my own father was absent from my life. The tough guy persona appealed to me for reasons I didn't understand at the time. In Death Wish and other movies, I saw him as a man with a hard exterior but with a gentle giant interior. According to the facts in this video, I can understand and empathize with his complexities. I actually have a few of these myself and many of our childhood experiences although seperated by a different time and place, strangely seem to run parallel.

Bronson is my favorite movie actor. He has starred in more great movies than anyone else. My all-time favorites are The Magnificent Seven, Great Escape, Dirty Dozen, Once Upon a Time, Chato's Land, The Mechanic, Mr. Majestyk, Death Wish, and Hard Times. He has always been criminally underrated as an actor. He should've won an Oscar for the original Death Wish. His performance is at times, happy, sad, frightened, fatigued, and of course menacing. He has always represented courage to me. I miss him. Today's Hollywood stars don't hold a candle to his greatness.

I worked in the Paramount Studios mailroom back in the late-80's and used to park my motorcycle just to the right side of the Bronson Gate, back when the studio's property ended there, just before the expansion that swallowed up the original Western Costumes building right across the street. Bronson was the name of the street that ran north and south on the east side of the lot. But an older security guard who was working the Bronson Gate one day told me he knew Bronson from his pre-star days and that the actor took the name from the gate, not the road when he would stand around for hours a the gate, hoping to get picked as an extra back in the days before Central Casting's background players' department existed and hopefuls would stand, waiting to be picked out for a job that day. And actor Jack Klugman's name was pronounced "Clug-men" not Kloog-men."

According to IMDB Bronson's first acting credit was on TV in 1949, but soon after his first film was in the service comedy You're in the Navy Now starring Gary Cooper just a few years later as a Sailor. The film had many future tough guys and TV Icons such as Lee Marvin's in an uncredited role like Bronson, another was Eddie Albert of Green Acres fame as an Officer who like the other characters fought the ship's quirky engine at the center of the film. A very young Jack Webb of Dragnet fame also played another Officer that went into the boxing ring when Bronson's character was hurt by the engine but in the end all involved got to join a convoy once the " USS Teakettle" got a Diesel engine after the Navy gave up on its experiment power plant. Indeed Bronson did more TV in his career than he did films like The Great Escape and though Death Wish was his most remembered role his Tough Guy persona was well established in films like The Mechanic before it and others. Like many working actors in the 1950s thru the 1960s he often did more TV roles than films because studios went into the new medium as films were no longer the main entertainment they once were when it arrived and he acted in some way just a few years before he passed away at 81 in 2003. But many recalled that the loss of Jill Clayberg to cancer was when he truly began to leave this earth and missed her everyday carrying small part of her ashes with him where he went supposedly in a cane he used until his was mixed with hers soon after his own death nearly 20yrs ago...

I will never forget the look of sheer happiness on his face when his looks didn’t frighten her. His looks didn’t change her love for him. It was a tv program but I can remember nothing else! It shaped Bronson in my mind as a man of gentle kindness. I was a young girl but I couldn’t help but feel his appeal to women even if I didn’t understand it!

OH, I FORGOT ONE THING, WHEN SPEAKING TO JILL, SHE SAID THAT CHARLES IS JUST LIKE YOU SEE HIM ON CAMERA, ROUGH, GROUGH, IF YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY THAT INTERESTS HIM, HE WILL NOT RESPOND, IF IT IS NOT INTERESTING TO TALK ABOUT, THEN HE SAYS NOTHING. VERY TRUE, BUT HE WAS STILL VERY NICE TO SPEAK TO, AS WELL AS JILL. I SPOKE TO HER ON THE PHONE 2 TIMES, EACH ABOUT 20 MINUTES. WAS VERY EXCITING FOR US. I SHOWED HIM A COLLAGE OF PHOTOS OF HIM I HAD COLLECTED, AND PLACED ON MY WALL, HE HAD A HUGE SMILE ON HIS FACE. SO GOOD LOOKING, SO KIND, VERY SWEET. WILL NEVER FORGET THIS EXCITING TIME OF MY LIFE. LOST THE COLLAGE OVER THE YEARS, VERY SAD ABOUT THAT, BUT WILL NEVER FORGET THE DAY I MET HIM AND HIS WIFE, AND DAUGHTER. LOVE THIS MAN, AND JILL ALSO, OF CORSE. WONDER WHAT THEIR DAUGHTER IS DOING NOWDAYS. WILL HAVE TO CHECK IT OUT IF I CAN.

Movies are similarly to musics of the bands, I like some and not too much or at all with others. Love and Bullets, The Mechanic, Mr. Majestyk, Hard Times, Cold Sweat and most of Bronson's organized crime movies and his western ones including Once Upon a Time in the West, Breakheart Pass, Chato's Land, Death Hunt are my most favorites, even though Death Wish was the very first movie I saw and a gateway that I came to find more of Charles Bronson movies. Couple of different people had said I looked like Charles Bronson too, one being this old lady in the nursing home where I worked and when I had a natural pencil-line Fu Machu mustache and medium length black hair, and I thought she might be on too much medications since I'm lots stockier and Bronson was mostly slim and taller.

Bronson said on the Dick Cavett show that he worked in the coal mines for 5 1/2 years

CHARLES BRONSON ,ONE GOOD A TALENT ACTOR, RIP

[@tanmaxwell4599]

I COULD SEE MYSELF in Paul Kersey in the DEATH WISH series. I grew up being bullied some way form or fashion - and have an intense hatred for them even now.The first three movies are my favorites.Great acting - even by the sub characters.The uncensored fatal beating of Kersey's wife,and sexual abuse of Kersey's daughter in the first movie, was classic It would justify making Keysey the Vigilante .The way his daughter died only threw fuel on the fire of his hatred for these creeps.Clint Eastwood did his early movies in the same vengeful way.

He was one of the best, great actor..

[@titoramone4465]

I love Charles Bronson! Sly Stallone said that Bronson was very un-Hollywood: avoided the limelight, scandals, etc. He was a family man. And, he had a rigorous workout program. RIP

Wow this shocked me from his life story: Bronson was married to English actress Jill Ireland from October 5, 1968,[49] until her death in 1990. He had met her in 1962, when she was married to Scottish actor David McCallum. At the time, Bronson (who shared the screen with McCallum in The Great Escape) reportedly told him, "I'm going to marry your wife". The Bronsons lived in a grand Bel Air mansion in Los Angeles with seven children: two by his previous marriage, three by hers (one of whom was adopted), and two of their own, Zuleika and Katrina, the latter of whom was also adopted.[50] After they married, she often played his leading lady, and they starred in fifteen films together.[citation needed] To maintain a close family, they would load up everyone and take them to wherever filming was taking place, so that they could all be together. They spent time in a colonial farmhouse on 260 acres (1.1 km2) in West Windsor, Vermont,[51] where Ireland raised horses and provided training for their daughter Zuleika so that she could perform at the higher levels of horse showing. The Vermont farm, "Zuleika Farm", was named for the only biological child between them. During the late 1980s through the mid-1990s Bronson regularly spent winter holidays vacationing with his family in Snowmass, Colorado.[citation needed] On May 18, 1990, aged 54, after a long battle with breast cancer, Jill Ireland died of the disease at their home in Malibu, California.[52] In December 1998,

This was a great video on Charles Bronson & family .. very tastefully done 5 stars . It doesn't surprise me much about Charles having such great fame first overseas before he did here in America .. as my late great friend Slim Whitman - was very huge & well loved in England before America finally took notice of him in the 80's - Slim was a great man & wonderful friend of mine , miss him dearly.

[@AlCatrraz]

The name BRONSON came from THE BRONSON GATE at Paramount Studios! That's where Charles, and other actors, used to congregate at those days...
