Think he was in Judgment at Nuremberg, non-speaking part, I think a juror...Great movie btw...don't remember the one you can't remember either.

The name of it was "36" hours and his co-stars were Rod Taylor and Eva Marie Saint. I just looked at something called Ranker. Didn't rank it very high. 15th best movie he was in. Great Escape ranked best. Murphy's Romance 2nd. That's ok. I enjoyed it. What do they know. They even ranked his movies with Doris Day higher.

I was just straining my brain trying to remember him in "Sayonara." I still remember the names of the Japanese ladies (Miyoshi Umeki and Miko Taka), but I can't remember him in the movie very well. I think he played an Air Force pilot. Strange how memory works. Course, I think that movie came out in the late 50s. No wonder I can't remember.
