Richard Widmark
dies at age 93. Always see him as Jim Bowie in the Duke's
Alamo. Long distinguished career spanning almost 2/3 of the history of film.

One of my favorite actors.
Widmark had an impressive body of work, especially in western and film noir. In addition to the Alamo, check out Sam Fuller's Pickup on South Street, John Ford's Cheyenne Autumn, the epic How the West Was Won, and my two favorites: Elia Kazan's Panic in the Streets and Jules Dassin's superb Night and the City.
