Met him in Hawaii in 1963. Good guy and a excellent actor.

RIP

That was Peter Finch who said that in that movie. Albert Finney used his “little gray cells” to solve “Murder on the Orient Express” (1974).

One of the more distinctive voices, a quality that is not seen in today's entertainment.

He almost always turned in a good performance.

He was excellent in "Miller's Crossing" and "Big Fish."

RIP
