Joe Turkel: World War II Veteran
Some character actors are so powerful that they are remembered more than the leading stars. Same is the popularity of Joe Turkel whose performances in Blade Runner and The Shining are still alive in the memory of 1980’s moviegoers.
Ever wondered from where did his tough look come from? It could be either a gifted talent of expression or a past career in the army that is responsible for his rugged appeal. Yes, it may sound a new fact to most you, but Joe has served in the European Theater during World War II, and that explains everything why Paths of Glory is his personal favorite film.
