Saturday Man Movie

The year was 1947, and a young Richard Widmark was playing what many considered to be his most famous role: gangster Tommy Udo in Kiss of Death.

Pretty heavy for 1947.

  2. And a lib, which I wrote about in my most recent Ronald Reagan Trail post. Widmark grew up in Princeton, IL, a stop on the Ronald Reagan Trail.
