| He became typecast as very narcissistic characters who were oily and in varying degrees unpleasant, which he could do and make them funny. In between She Loves Me and Superman, there was Fade Out—Fade In. And he also played such characters on TV. I was so used to thinking of him that way that I was very surprised when I heard the Lehman Engel Boys From Syracuse recording. No one sings "The Shortest Day of the Year" and "You Have Cast Your Shadow on the Sea" as tenderly as he does. He hadn't started his career playing those oily characters, but he sure became known for them. |
