Richard Widmark

Highest Rated: 100% Yellow Sky (1948)

Lowest Rated: 0% National Lampoon's Movie Madness (1981)

Birthday: Dec 26, 1914

Birthplace: Sunrise, Minnesota, USA

Tough, mean, devious and smart; all words that could be used to describe the sort of characters Richard Widmark was identified with. From his earliest roles, Widmark became an archetype, typically playing hoods, thugs, tough-minded cops or determined, flawed authority figures. Over the span of 50 years and 75 movies, he built a career of playing men capable of casual cruelty and offhand violence. Even the more positive roles he played tended towards a high-strung, neurotic intensity that became a trademark. Off-screen, though, the real Widmark was in complete contrast to the roles he excelled at.
