Carl Rollyson Quote
Character actor Ernest Borgnine told a story about Walter Brennan that is typical of the man and his professionalism. Relatively new to motion pictures, but with a burgeoning reputation as an actor, Borgnine was surprised when Brennan approached him on the set of Bad Day at Black Rock and asked if Borgnine would mind if Brennan watched him do a scene. Not at all, Borgnine said, rightly taking Brennan’s request as a compliment. After Brennan watched Borgnine do a take, Brennan said, Good enough. Great.
