Karl Malden RIP.

Karl Malden's passing at the age of 97 has just been announced.

Here's a YouTube clip from A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE:

From 1966's NEVADA SMITH, with Steve McQueen (clip has Scandinavian subtitles):

A fan's tribute, with numerous stills of Malden set to "It Had To Be You":

Perhaps Malden's short-lived but critically acclaimed 1980 TV series about a steelworker, SKAG (created by Abby Mann), will surface on Hulu or something like it in the future.
