Duvall steals every movie he's in. He's my favorite actor. No matter what role he's in, his character is believable and you forget he's acting. I got a movie from the library with Richard Boone (Paladin) called "Against a Crooked Sky." It was the same quality movie as the cars made in the 70s: crappy. Boone played his character well, though, and it was nothing like Paladin. I never met Boone, but he had a relative who was a lawyer in the town where I grew up and starred in "Red Skies of Montana" which was filmed there. Tommy Lee Jones played Woodrow Call perfectly in a Robert Duvall movie, Lonesome Dove. Jon Voight played Woodrow Call very well in Return to Lonesome Dove, as did James Garner in The Streets of Laredo. Now I see Voight is playing the Pope and Garner plays a man taking care of his alzheimer's wife. Quite a switch! Actors are generally smart people. I've met a few, and they are likable for the most part. My brother-in-law tells of having some guy come in his printshop which shared a space with a magazine/cigar shop. The guy asked for cigar recommendations, which my bil gave very competently. Later, he found out the guy was Oliver Stone. He had Andie McDowell walk in his shop and talk to him also, not knowing who she was at the time.
