From the day he was a victim of pneumonic plague in Panic in the Streets 1950 to a Tv-movie named Back When We Were Grownups 2004 he was never out of work, via Italian Mafia movies, Biblical spectacles, Barbarians, Mongolians, making country and western album, leading Ripley's on TV, winning an Oscar and doing pushups, and much much more. Even a French new vawe movie with Bardot. If the director and the script was bad, he knew how to chew up the scenery, knowing very well he overplayed. From acting screen Hello to acting Farewell For every good to great movie he made he made at least five bad ones, and he knew it, how else explain Welcome to Blood City 1977 and Cocaine Cowboys 1979. Jack Wilson a man you never wanna meet, Shane 1953 A very Palance interpretation of "Green Green Grass of Home", but it's a good picture show. Thanks for watching! Any favorites?

He did one spaghetti western where he refused to accept a robe from his enemy after they rob him. He walks away naked.
I liked that bomb disposal movie he did and Without Warning. Also the horror short The Man Who Collected Poe.
His Oscar acceptance speech was something else.

"I've heard a lot about you..."
Back in my basketball days, when a friend and I met at the court, I'd say, "So you're Jack Wilson" and we'd run down the dialog to "What have you heard"
"I heard you have no game."
"Prove it!"
And it was on!

Did he first put on a shooting glove, Bravo?

Somehow it seems fitting that the last entry on his IMDb filmography is The Incredible Adventures of Marco Polo on His Journeys to the Ends of the Earth (1998) he played BEELZEBUB (of course !)

Ryker: I'll kill him if I have to. Wilson: You mean I'll kill him if you have to.

"Studio press agents make up anything they want to, and reporters go along with it. One flack created the legend that I had been blown up in an air crash during the war, and my face had to be put back together by way of plastic surgery. If it is a 'bionic face', why didn't they do a better job of it?"

If it is a 'bionic face', why didn't they do a better job of it?" I was just about to post this … gmta "On a nationally televised talk show, Palance addressed the oft repeated story about how he supposedly had such damage done to his face that plastic surgery gave him the face we all know. He said, "I know I'm no beauty, but these are the Estonian features I was born with."

Some folks he DIDN'T check the credits ERRONEOUSLY thought he was Skeletor in Masters of the Universe (1987). IT'S Frank Langella that IS!
