Thanks, exactly, sometimes it’s just the part that doesn’t really allow the actor to shine. Bob definitely shines in many of his other movies, he’s amazing in them really.
Oh god, you’re crazy Bob Cummings drives me crazy, so sexy. That aside, he certainly had acting chops, he could do drama and comedy, just great, “You came along”, and @the first time are probably my favorites”, I also love It started with eve”. But dial M makes me cringe a bit, cause it was a waste of his talent, there wasn’t a lot he could do there with the character. As for the cigarette, Bob could definitely hold them pretty cool, he actually did smoke a bit before he’d quit later. He is truly mesmerizing to me, I thought he had this smarm to him when I hadn’t seen much of his work at first, then I saw how much more range and depth he had in his roles, and how fascinating a person he was/is. I totally fell in love, that’s how I found this thread.
As for ripping him in King’s row, he was fantastic in it! he portrayed Parris in such a sweet way, and as a real gentleman. I loved how different he was as Parris, in contrast to his goofier comedy roles (which I equally love too).
