Everyone knows him from 'Streets of San Francisco', American Express commercials, and 'Streetcar', but if you want to see KM at his best, check out 'Baby Doll'. Elia Kazan directed, Carol Baker starred, but Malden is the best. RIP.
Baby Doll is one seriously uncomfortable film to watch: pedophilia played off a bit whimsically, but yes, a fine KM performance. I like him best in Waterfront, but remember him best in Streets of SF.

This is the most treacherous time I can remember to be famous.
Nice knowing you, Dave ...
Mr. Malden was married for 70 years! That's like 1,200 Hollywood years.
