My Take
Jack Kruschen is exactly the kind of performer I love to champion, the character actor who never steals top billing but quietly holds a film together. A Canadian from Winnipeg who built his life in American film, television, and radio, he earned an Academy Award nomination for Dr. Dreyfuss in The Apartment, which to me is the industry finally noticing a craftsman who had been doing the work for years. There is something honorable about a long career spent making other actors look better. He lived to 80, and I tip my hat to that steady, unflashy dedication.
