Greatest voice in the history of Hollywood; just beats out Lee Marvin in my book. What a menacing screen presence. Terrific career - even made a French film: 'L'arme à gauche'.
Thank you Sir, for serving and defending our country during WWll, and thanks for entertaining us western movie lovers by playing in and starring in S O many great westerns through the years. R. I. P. LEO🇺🇲 GORDON
What a mean looking dude. Apparently a cerebral and quite pleasant mansion real life. I remember seeing The Night of the Grizzly when I was 7 or 8. He scared me as much as the bear.
They said the bear was afraid to do the scene with Leo but they had a counselor talk to him and explain that Leo wasn't going to hurt him. The bear agreed to do the scene but insisted that police would be standing by on the set.
What a career. Piercing blue eyes. Great actor and writer. And immortalized on film in one of the greatest scenes Leo was ever in & became "the pilgrim" in John Wayne's "McLintock!" -- The mudslide fight. Leo was always reliable & appeared with Wayne in more than one film. Too bad Leo wasn't one of The Dirty Dozen with Lee Marvin. He would've fit in real good.
Yea Leo did the Draw scene in Gunsmoke's opening scene Damn shame Arness won every time I saw it I think Leo and Harry Dean Stanton was some of the Same !
If there was anyone you wouldn't wanna have argument with, it's this guy, especially in the movies, he had that look and build that you didn't wanna mess with, especially when he was playing the bad guy, great actor
Another great character actor. Leo Gordon scared the living hell out of me as a kid when I first saw him as Crazy Mike Carney in "Riot in Cell Block 11"...he was as bad as they come.
He's among the best of character actors when it comes to his portrayal of villainous roles in gangster and western films. I like him best in 2 prison films 🎥🎬. Riot in Cell Block 11 was one where he was a right hand man to Neville Brand who played the top ringleader. The other is The Steel Jungle where he was a brutal henchman fellow con of an incarcerated mob gangster Ted de Corsia.
Glad to see that you are giving some credit to a great actor. As a bad guy he was the badest. Liked him a lot when he was in a few episodes of Maverick where he played big Mike the Irishman and was a friend of James Gardner
Gordon was one of those supporting actors who made every scene he was in. One of the great bad guys in movies. And started his life as indeed a real bad guy, convicted of armed robbery and even shot by cops. Turned his life around and became and actor and writer, a nice guy except on the screen.
There is a lot to admire about this man. He went to prison as a young man and he made the most of the prison library. He was one of the best bad guys you could fine and he could look very scare similar to Danny Trejo. He enjoyed being behind the scenes and writing much more then acting. He was married to the same woman most of his life. Combined his acting roles and the scripts he helped write he could easily of been on the walk of fame

the perfect comment - non informative boomer profile picture, blasé and matter of fact statement of your real name but no capital letters, the uncalled for question, the dozen question marks, and you fucking dated it - this is one for the ages
A great character actor also wrote television and movie scripts and a novel or two. Quite the renaissance man
Great actor. Writer. Novelist. Played a bad guy very well. Despite being a very big sweetheart. Admired by those who worked with him.
Greatest voice in the history of Hollywood; just beats out Lee Marvin in my book. What a menacing screen presence. Terrific
career - even made a French film: 'L'arme à gauche'.
Great voice yes...but nobody beats Lee! Gordon was a serious bad ass in real life and on screen.

Old school tough guy who embraced the typecast
I loved Leo, & at the same time, the guy scared the heck outta me!!
What a mean looking dude.

Married to beautiful Lynn Cartwright, 50 year marriage, till death , a solid guy

Yeah man, Leo would've been perfect in that flick!
Leo was incredibly gorgeous back in the good old days!! 9-14-2020

Leo was the baddest of the bad.
@@jameswinter6125 Yep.

Fabulous actor! He is so good in The Haunted Palace (Corman)! As well as in My Name is Nobody... He was also a brilliant scriptwriter!
Aye, I'm here from Corman's movie. Everyone was great in the movie, to be honest.
James garner said he was the hardest puncher he ever felt.
Mr, Gordan as the Best Badest of yhm all.
One of my alltime favorites! Thanks for posting!

He was The BEST.
Stand out performance in "The intruder" with William Shatner.....later Star Trek
He was a great actor I always enjoyed watching him. A real tough guy.
There is a lot to admire about this man. He went to prison as a young man and he made the most of the prison library.

The Night of the Grizzly.....he stole the movie.
Cass Dowdy nearly stole the audience. Top 5 all time bad guys.
I felt he could have been casted as a tough sheriff, Texas Ranger, or some other rugged lawman.
Outstanding presentation my Mic friend .
Holy shit, 2:25, that Leo's wife? What a beauty!
Leo is the brother of Bruce Gordon.AKA="Frank Nitti".RIP.
The Night of the Grizzly was a good movie that he was in.
