My Take
My admiration for Robert Webber comes from how he stayed essential for nearly fifty years without ever needing top billing. A Californian from Santa Ana, he gave us Juror No. 12 in 12 Angry Men and built a reputation playing polished businessmen and slippery characters with equal conviction, thanks to that sleek, clenched-jaw look. I've always believed a film lives or dies by its supporting players, and Webber was the kind of dependable craftsman who made everything around him sharper. Hollywood's golden era shone partly because of steady professionals like him, and he has my full respect.
