Idea for who could have been cast as Pug
If you have read both books--you know that Pug Henry is about 46-48 years old about 5 foot 6 or 7---Rhoda was 5-9 or so
I was trolling around different actors who were acting then that were around that age
For Pug Henry I was trying to figure out what actor was about that age when they shot winds of war==don't get me wrong--Mitchum is pug but he was in his late 60's when they start filming--nearly 20 years older then his charicter.
Here is a name to consider---Martin Sheen.... he was 43 when they started filming--of course--looking at his roles during that time--he was just starting his run of supporting roles that started to give him some cred---Ghandi, Firestarter to name two
