Vidal did so much acting he almost doesn't qualify for this thread. His entire life was a performance, in the Oscar (Wilde/Levant) sense. Vidal should have done Murder By Death, not the inept Capote. And I thought GV could have been cast as Nero Wolfe, instead of the Godawful Maury Chaykin. Vidal's public persona had the perfect blend of scholarly sophistication & child-like immaturity for the great detective (& in his later years, the corpulence). |

(From left) Burt Lancaster, screenwriter Eleanor Perry, Janet Landgard, and John Cheever in The Swimmer (filmed 1966, released 1968), adapted from Cheever’s short story.  During the filming of this scene Lancaster stormed off the set, furious at Cheever going off script: 'The son of a bltch is padding his part". |

TV, rather than film ... Erle Stanley Gardner played the courtroom judge in the final episode of the 1957 "Perry Mason" series, starring Raymond Burr.
