movielover11 Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 I'm just watching Vic Morrow on Blackboard Jungle....he was one of the best actors - and so under-appreciated.....I'd love to see some photos of Vic Morrow if anyone has them to post. I thought he was kinda handsome and sexy - that swagger, the voice and pout....just wonderful. Link to post Share on other sites
metsfan Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 I had posted some with his family on the old thread but it's gone now. If they ever come up on ebay I'll post them here. These are the only ones available so far. Link to post Share on other sites
movielover11 Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 Thanks for the photos Metsfan!!! I think Vic Morrow was handsome in COMBAT t.v. series...but he didn't age too well......he was good-looking back in the 1950's and 1960's...like when he guest starred in Bonanza.....

CineMaven Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Father of actress Jennifer Jason Leigh. What a horrific death. Sheesh! Link to post Share on other sites
movielover11 Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 Yes...very sad isn't it? By the way - Jennifer Jason Leigh looks exactly like her daddy Vic Morrow. Link to post Share on other sites
CineMaven Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Hmmm...I just don't know if that's a good thing for a girl. Link to post Share on other sites
movielover11 Posted September 24, 2007 Author Share Posted September 24, 2007 LOL...Cinemaven!!! Some people think Jennifer Jason Leigh is attractive...I tend to think those looks were better on Vic Morrow....LOL I hope someone can post Jennifer and Vic's photo so we can see how similar they look.

newclassicfilmfan Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Jennifer Jason Leigh is a great actress, and I hear she might get Best Actress Oscar for her upcoming film Margot at the Wedding which comes out in November. Vic Morrow, Jennifer's father, was a supberb actor, albeit very underated. I loved him in Combat. The resemblence between Jennifer and her father Vic Morrow is astounding.

johnm001 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Combat was one of my favorite shows, ever on television. I have the DVDs (edited though they may be), and it remains a favorite, all these years later. Link to post Share on other sites
newclassicfilmfan Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 To John, I have some DVD's of Combat as well. I really think it was one of the best shows ever made. I think Vic Morrow was instrumental in making that show a success. His acting was flawless in it, and if you see an episode called Survival, you can easily see how talented an actor he was. It's an episode where he gets his arms and hands burned and his pain looks so realistic throughout the show - it was his only Emmy nomination for that episode. Link to post Share on other sites
JoeLynn Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Thanks for posting the photos of Victor! I am a new fan and am currently checking out movies he was in. He was a real cutie in the 50's and 60's but I must agree, he didn't age well from what I've seen. I watched Blackboard Jungle again the other night and it seems like each time I watch it I notice something new. For example, did anyone else notice that during the scene were they were watching Jack and the Beanstalk Vic's character was sitting at his desk fiddling around with the knife he pulls on Glen's character just a few scenes away? Was that put in on purpose? I mean why wouldn't the teacher take the knife away then instead of just letting him carve into the desk? Link to post Share on other sites
