A great actor George Kennedy is. He has also always been a household name in our house.
I thought he was great in many-a-role he was in especially in:
Shennandoah as the Gentleman and Union Army Colonel that James Stewart goes to whils looking for his captured son (Boy).
Another film I liked him very much in was in:
The Dirty Dozen w/ Lee Marvin, Charles Bronson, Telly Savalas etc. He played the part of an Army Major and also Major Resiman's (Lee Marvin) friend.
But I think my most favorite movie with him in it is:
The Eiger Sanction w/ Clint Eastwood.
Of course, I liked him in all the movies he did with The Duke.
An honorable mention was him in:
Cool Hand Luke w/ Paul Newman & Strother (What we have here is...failure to communicate) Martin. George brilliantly played the part of a fellow "Convict."
