    You're supposed to use your imagination (memory?) for the rest of it :|

     

    Here's kind of a clue:

     

    {font:sans-serif}When interviewed by {font}[Hedda Hopper|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedda_Hopper|Hedda Hopper]{font:sans-serif} in the early 1950s, he spoke of career goals and his preparation for roles: "Well, first of all, let's set the stage or goal I set for myself when I decided to become an actor... not just 'an actor', but a successful one. I looked in the mirror and knew with my "puss" and 155-pound weakling body, I couldn't pass for a leading man, and I had to be different. And I sure had to be courageous, so I chose to be the meanest s.o.b. in the movies... strictly against my mild nature, as I'm an ordinary, peace-loving husband and father. Inasmuch, as I admired fine actors like Richard Widmark, Victor Mature, Robert Mitchum, and others who had made their early marks in the dark, sordid, and guilt-ridden world of {font}[film noir|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_noir|Film noir]{font:sans-serif}; here, indeed, was a market for my talents. I thought the meaner I presented myself, the tougher I was with women, slapping them around in well produced films where evil and death seem to lurk in every nightmare alley and behind every venetian blind in every seedy apartment, I could find a market for my screen characters."{font}

    I see what you mean

     

    Who's this? (this may be a rough one. might have to show another with more nose.)

    Neither could she. I just got off the phone with her. She's ok now, she's taking a shower.

     

    Ya got William Bendix, though! :)

    This is easier than the explanation: You can go to tinypic.com. or another app, and upload your image(s). Once uploaded, right-click on the resulting image and select Copy image URL. Now you're ready to post it here for all to see.
