People forget that a.) he had to overcome a speech impediment to become and actor, and b. ) he was just as important a figure on the stage as on film. His Broadway performance as Othello, opposite Christopher Plummer's Iago, is the stuff of legend. He was a master craftsman of stage and screen, a man of high principles, and a man anyone can look up to as an example of what an actor's life should be -- courageous, disciplined, and compassionate towards their fellows, Because theater and moviemaking are team sports.
