Dan Duryea has become my new favorite. Forgive me, I was born in '65 and didn't know any better until recently. He was handsome as well, which never hurts an actor's career.
Agree. I adore him. There is something to be said for `personality actors` because the wonderfulness of some of them sustains us as fans. If you love Duryea and I do, or Judy Garland, all you have to do when you`re feeling down is to think of some moment of theirs. Actors can have negative or positive effects Big Time!
One of Hollywoods best character-actors and villains and one of my favorites! I love Scarlet Street, Lady on a Train, Black Bart and his guest-appearance in the Jack Benny Show
My wife and I love Dan Duryea! We are absolutely mesmerized watching Mr, Duryea work! He is truly one of the Greats of the most important time in Hollywood History! Gordon Welke (and Leona Sackaney). P,S, Thank you so much for doing such often under appreciated work restoring these oh so important films, from a humanity standpoint!
I "discovered" Noir about 5 years ago,i always used to watch my parents watching these movies when i was a kid and couldn't understand what was the big deal,i love these movies,they are so good,i call them "My detective movies" ,i like anything with Mr Duryea in it,you learn to love him out of pure hate, ha ha ha, if you hate someone in a movie that means they have done their job and done it well.
I recently did To Kill a Mockingbird on stage and one of the characters I played, and i played four, was an angry mob member and I gave my character the laugh that Dan Duryea had in The Little Foxes.
Dan Duryea will always be my favorite slime ball in films.He did it so well that you couldn't help but be utterly entertained by him.Not bad looking actually but he had the ability to change his image into looking scary.Ive seen every one of his films.They simply don't make them like him anymore.
Last night on MeTV I watched a 1967 episode of "Dragnet" that had Dan's other son (Peter Duryea) as one of the guest stars. He looked a bit like his dad but his VOICE sounded a LOT like his dad ! Mind blowing ! Hopefully the episode can be found here at YT so Dan Dureya fans can check it out ! The name of that particular Dragnet episode was "The Trial Board". This wonderful interview with Richard is SO informative & entertaining ! The good folk at NoirCitySF are the BEST !! :-)
I loved them together So glad this movie didn't get lost in the shuffle Any fan has most likely seen The little foxes That was the first time I saw him and what am ass great acting
Maybe someone with a psychology background can answer this: why is it that actors who play the scumbags on screen are nice decent guys in real life and those who play the good guys tend to be scums in real life?
My all time favorite actor. Thanks for posting this and giving me further insight into Dan's life off camera.
I have a notion to second that emotion !

My all time favorite. Best villain of all time.
I love Scarlett Street and The Woman in The Window. Dan Duryea, a cool actor..
I have a notion to second that emotion !!
These two are my favorite films of his..
One of Hollywoods best character-actors and villains and one of my favorites!
I love Scarlet Street, Lady on a Train, Black Bart and his guest-appearance in the Jack Benny Show
I totally agree ! He was very talented and quite a versatile actor ! He left us much too soon !

I absolutely agree - it's a great compliment to any actor you love,
when you're able to "hate" him for the length of the film!
Dan Duryea is my favorite noir movie actors; he truly was the best actor of the time.
he was great in WINCHESTER '73 1950,also the lead in BLACK BART 1948.
I totally agree !!
His portrayal of Waco Johnny Dean was incredible.
Now I love Dan Duryea, I had just never heard of him before!
My two absolute favorites are " Scarlett Street" and" Manhandled", , he was brilliant!
I recently did To Kill a Mockingbird on stage and one of the characters I played, and i played four, was an angry mob member and I gave my character the laugh that Dan Duryea had in The Little Foxes.
I thought it was Richard Widmark that threw an old lady down some stairs.
It was - but as he was not allowed to see his dad's flicks, maybe he just mistook the roles/movies.
Dan Duryea will always be my favorite slime ball in films.He did it so well that you couldn't help but be utterly entertained by him.Not bad looking actually but he had the ability to change his image into looking scary.Ive seen every one of his films.They simply don't make them like him anymore.
love his dad's laugh forever
Love Dan in everything he ever acted in 💖❤

He was one of our best!
I loved them together
So glad this movie didn't get lost in the shuffle
Any fan has most likely seen
The little foxes
That was the first time I saw him and what am ass great acting
True Scots man: will do anything to make a penny:) Great actor. He looks Scottish too!
I remember Dan Duarte’s; I saw a lot of his movies. I liked him too.
waco slim?,doesnt he mean waco johnny dean!
I've always liked actors who played villains, and no one played as many villains as Dan Duryea.
Wow didn't see his father's film until 2014 that's a little strange
i guess his friends never seen them either,odd
He said my mother had to put up with a lot....wonder what that entailed
Wow

I thought my razor was dull till I started listening to this. . .
Whether I agree with or not, I like your comment.
2:48,push people down staircases in wheelchairs.must be thinking about richard widmark in KISS OF DEATH 1947.or did he do that in another film.
I’m looking for an email for Richard Duryea or Alan K. Rhodes.
I am regularly confused with this guy.
Plus Hitchcock "Three wives too many"
