Burt Lancaster

I don’t think there was a motion picture that Burt Lancaster did that I didn’t like. He was bigger than life and no matter who stared with him in a picture, he took their thunder, That’s only my opinion of course. In his action movies where he had to be athletic, the circus acrobat came out in him. He was very capable doing many of his own stunts. In the 60’s I had the pleasure of meeting Burt Lancaster while I was doing some motion picture work. I had mentioned to him that I was born and raised in the circus. For about an hour we sat on the movie set and talked circus.
