| Just to set the record straight, Robert Preston's film career ran from '38 to '84. He displayed considerable crackling sexuality opposite leading ladies like Susan Hayward, Paulette Goddard, Joan Bennett, Dorothy Lamour, and others (in his early films) and, after his stage success in Music Man, opposite Dorothy McGuire, Shirley Jones, and even Malcolm Jamieson. So Bierko was imitating Preston in that department as well as in everything else. |
