Guy had the most awesome nose in history, and no threads on his passing?

As a tribute to him, I cut up my American Express card. *nod*

He was a damn fine actor, too. How did I miss his passing?

Karl Malden was serbian american acto


Not really...he was of Serbian ancestry, to be sure, but he was born in the US--Gary, Indiana (Gary, Gary, Indiana...Meredith Wilson, anyone?)

Also, he was Omar Bradley in Patton, probably the role he's best-known for.

I think his best known role is "Mitch" Mitchell in A Streetcar Named Desire, for which he won an Oscar. And Father Barry in On The Waterfront was also a great role, for which he was nominated for an Oscar but didn't win. Malden's Bradley in Patton was okay but hardly an Academy Award part. That film was a tour de force for Georce C Scott, pure and simple.

I would agree that his performance in A Streetcar Named Desire was a better performance, but I'm not sure as many people are familiar with it as they are with his role as Bradley in Patton--thus, why I believe Omar Bradley to be his best-known role.

First I have heard of this sad news. :(

"Streets of San Francisco" was a good series... Remember it well from the '70s.

I've seen Patton and am a bit of a Malden fan and I didn't remember he was in that until you said it.

I would say he's probably best known for The Streets of San Francisco and his American Express ads, and the movie role I know him best for is On the Waterfront.

Anyway, 90 years, a good run. Thanks Karl, and goodbye. The Streets here seem a little less for your passing.

Also Karl Malden( Младен Ђорђе Секуловић)was a Serbian born in America, also his mother was Czech and his father was a Serb.
