Yes, indeed, he was a great actor. I saw him at the "Save the Spire" event for Salisbury Cathedral here in the UK some years ago. He did a Shakespeare narration with Kenneth Brannagh. It was spellbinding... truly!!
Great Actor, great American! One of my favorite movies remains the slightly 'over the top' movie "The Mountain Men" starring Charlton Hesston and Brian Keith.
With a voice as rich as Fort Knox and a talent as broad and deep as the Mississippi and (according to him) a face that belonged to another century, Mr. Hesston was indeed an American icon.
Who can forget his statement to President Clinton (upon becoming president of the National Rifle Association) "America doesn't trust you with our 21 year old daughters, and we sure, Lord, don't trust you with our guns."
I didn't like all of his movies, but loved his oratory skills. A perceived right-winger who was active in civil rights in the 60's. He lived a full life.
Good morning everyone.I saw Planet of the Apes when it first came out.It really upset me as a little kid,and changed the way that I looked at the world.To think for the first time in my life that civilization as we know it could actually be wiped out.Makes you want to take better care of the Earth and your brothers and sisters that share it.
