Treat yourself to Sterling Hayden discussing life.
“We hooked up with about thirty of the toughest bastards on earth. None of them had had a bath in years. All had been in the thick of the fighting and marching all up and down Bosnia and Croatia. They would only take one cigarette sofrep.com/specialoperati…
For a guy who hated Hollywood, Sterling sure made a lot of landmark movies. He was the King of Film Noir, the actor outside of Nicholson in a Kubrick film and took one in the head for Coppola dangerousminds.net/comments/the_e…
In addition to being a sailor, commando, actor and activist, Hayden also wrote two books; The Wanderer in 1963 and Voyage in 1976. Story of a man who is gifted with everything and still fights for a poorly defined life goal of not wanting to be successful.amazon.com/product-review…
Meant to type "best" actor outside of Nicholson in a Kubrick film. He never won an acting award during his life but at age 30 already had a Silver Star for gun running and gallantry. Not bad. valor.militarytimes.com/hero/36664
There were two other actors who had earned Silver Stars. Charles Durning and Audie Murphy. Murphy was more a hero turned actor. But Private Durning has some people asking questions about his Silver Star. airborneinnormandy.com/arlingtonprobl…
