FloydDBarber Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 I find a strange fascination for his character in Out of the Past. He looks lika a hulking giant but does not project pure evil. He does what he has to do for his boss. If it involves bumping someone off he will do it. Everything is matter of fact. His first encounter with Mitchum is more like old friends. He is nothing like the two arrogant, sarcastic hitmen in The Killers. Too bad he only appeared in a few movies. Maybe because of his size he was not leading man material.

mrroberts Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Look him up on Wiki, under his real name Valia Valentinoff. As Paul Valentine he was also in the Edward G Robinson film *House Of Strangers* playing the youngest brother. Eddie called him "dumbhead" . Link to post Share on other sites
