Dude, are you really referring to yourself in the third, as "the 3rd?

Better performance:

Ian McKellen in Richard III

or

Joseph Cotton in The Third Man?
You may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"

Yes. I was awaiting his return with bait-like breath.

Joseph Cotton, hands down.  Very underrated actor, lived in the shadows of Orson Welles.

Following this logic, if Jose were to become a radio announcer for the Astros, we would get to hear the phrase: "The Captain and The 3rd".  I cringe every time that Milo refers to himself as "The Captain".  It's like the guy is trapped in 1965 and can't escape.

Not sure about "hands down" but I definitely agree with the rest.

Loved Sir Ian as Richard, though.  One of the better Shakespearean performances I've seen.

As did about 3/4 of the East Coast at the time.

Sorry, too easy.

Now, who was bigger?  Orson Welles or Frank Cannon?

Orson Welles was the larger, weighing in at about 350, 90lbs more than Mr. Conrad.

In Milo's case wouldn't it be more like "The Captain and a 5th", or is that just what it sounds like?

OK. I can go along with Welles being the bigger man, but no way the  Bullwinkle  narrator went less than three bills.  Not by the time he was  Cannon, anyway.

Don't discount Richard Dreyfuss' performance as Richard III in "The Goodbye Girl," though.
blah, blah, blah . . .
