My Take
Joseph Mascolo fascinates me as a study in commitment. He started as a musician before becoming a dramatic actor, and then played the villain Stefano DiMera on Days of Our Lives for an astonishing 34 years. Sustaining a single role that long, keeping audiences loving and loathing him in equal measure, requires a craft most performers never master. Add Jaws 2 and Shaft's Big Score, and you have a deep, dependable career. He worked nearly to the end of his 87 years, and I deeply respect actors who treat the profession as a lifelong calling.
