Speaking of Robert Mitchum, anybody ever see, "Night of the Hunter"?incredible fuckin movie. Mitch is so evil in it. Spike Lee ripped it off when he did "Do the Right Thing"

"Ah, little lad, you're staring at my fingers. Would you like me to tell you the little story of right-hand/left-hand? The story of good and evil? H-A-T-E! It was with this left hand that old brother Cain struck the blow that laid his brother low. L-O-V-E! You see these fingers, dear hearts? These fingers has veins that run straight to the soul of man. The right hand, friends, the hand of love. Now watch, and I'll show you the story of life. Those fingers, dear hearts, is always a-warring and a-tugging, one agin t'other. Now watch 'em! Old brother left hand, left hand he's a fighting, and it looks like love's a goner. But wait a minute! Hot dog, love's a winning! Yessirree! It's love that's won, and old left hand hate is down for the count!"

Yeah I think he served six months in the LA County Jail in 1949. But before he even started acting he did time on a Gerogia chain gang.

Yeah, he got busted for being a "vagrant" as a teenager and was put on a chang gain. Then in 49 he got busted for Marijuana possesion.
