miitchum. reed was one of the best at playing crazy because he was crazy.

I HAVE HEARD THAT REED WAS QUITE "ECCENTRIC".🙂

funniest reed story. he lived on the isle of wight and he was constantly getting into fights and getting injured during feats of strength. contesta. the local doctor got tired of stitching him up so reed used to go to the vet.

THAT STORY ROCKS...I AM NOW VERY INTRIGUED TO WATCH SOME MORE OF THIS HOOLIGAN'S WORK.

reply

Oliver Reed was an alcoholic and a thug.

reply

Ooooh. I don't know. This is a tough one. I think I might give the edge to Reed just because of him being in Burnt Offerings and The Devils, and I really like both of those.

reply

he was very good in burnt offerings.

Robert Mitchum. A better actor and a much better human being.
