Lex Barker / Baldwin brothers

Lex Barker looks like the Baldwin brothers, does he not?

My first thought was he was the Baldwin boys father! HA!!

Then I read the credits and it turned out that his name was Lex Barker.

Lex Barker played Tarzan for awhile and was in Fellini's "La Dolce Vita". Where were you?

Let it be unsaid: insignificance is the locus of true increpation.

I had the very same thought! I could see a younger Alec Baldwin in that role.

Nobody gets to be a cowboy forever.

There is bit of a resemblance although Barker was blonde. After his stint as Tarzan his popularity waned. Thought his role as a charming baddie in T O T P suited him. A handsome dude, he was married 5 times and died in 1973 of a heart attack.
