This celebrated and endlessly quotable fellow also said?
?And why did the critics turn on me so fiercely in the late fifties and the early sixties? I suspect it was a cabal to cut me down to what they thought was my size.
And what is my size? It is, I trust, the size of an artist who has consistently given all that he has to give to his work, with a most peculiar passion.?

That?s right?Brodie starred in Anthony Mann?s *Desperate* and had supporting roles in other noirs, westerns, a couple of Elvis movies, etc.?He appeared on TV from the early ?50s to the late ?80s. It is said that he took his screen name from a man who jumped from the Brooklyn Bridge in 1886 and survived. Good work, mudskipper, it?s your thread.

This actor appeared in noir and crime classics - in more than 70 films overall (including westerns and light entertainment), and lots of TV. He was primarily a supporting actor, and worked with the likes of Richard Fleischer, Jacques Tourneur, Anthony Mann and Edward Dmytryk. His stage name had to do with taking a fall.
