Only reason
that it came to mind is that there was hardly a mention of his passing in the news where Heston is getting much more focus. I understand that Heston went on to other public prominence in the NRA after his acting career but the news is really playing up his acting.
I think that any critical reviewer will tell you that Widmark was far beyond Heston in his acting dynamics. I'm really not wanting Heston to get any less of a tribute, just bummed that Widmark got so little.
Imagine Heston playing Widmark's part in the "Bedford Incident". I rest my case.
