Poll question: What is your favorite Raymond Burr role?

I have no idea why I'm asking this question except I had an irresistible urge to.

(Whoops! I meant to put this in the lounge! Sorry).

15. Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window

I was never a Raymond Burr fan, but "Rear Window" is a masterpiece and his portrayal of the villain in that film contributes greatly to its success.

16. Godzilla!

[Aristus]

17. I'm standing up for Robert Ironside. 'Cause, you know, he can't stand up!

:rofl:

Seriously, though. I liked Ironside because his first name is the same as mine. And Ironside is a cool name for anybody, but especially for a guy in a wheelchair.

I loved that show. I used to love watching the beginning with the characters in silhouette against a blood-red background. And the pseudo-Bernard Herrman music. It was just TOO cool! B-)

18. Hells yeah!

He even had his own 'Mod Squad'. Well an older, kinda conservative MS. }(

19. He was good in "Crime of Passion" with Barbara Stanwyck

Sterling Hayden got billing over him but Burr's performance was pretty good.

20. One wonders: Was the guy who portrayed Paul Drake also gay?

Because . . . just look at the guy. If he's not queer as a three dollar bill, neither am I.

21. What makes you think I have one?

A favorite Raymond Burr role, that is. ;)
