ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS: BAD ACTOR (JANUARY 9, 1962)

We lost one of America's greatest actors this week.  Even before his noted portrayal of Boo Radley in his first film, To Kill a Mockingbird, Robert Duvall was giving some great performances on television, as in this 1962 episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents.  Directed  by John Newland from a "Max Franklin" (Richard Deming) story adapted by Robert Bloch, Duvall plays Bart Collins, a struggling actor who accidently kills a rival for a part.  Now what can he do with the body -- especially that pesky head?  Charles Robinson plays the unlucky victim; Carole Eastman plays Duvall's girlfriend; and William Schallert is the cop who investigates.

Enjoy.
