He was outstanding as a mute in “The Heart is a Lonely Hunter.”

From the Russians are Coming to The Sons of Anarchy, what an amazing career. I never knew or heard a thing about his politics which regardless of what they may have been, makes him one of my favorites.

You're confusing him with Allan Arbus.

Similar sounding names and “type.” I wonder if the two ever worked together ? They could’ve played brothers.
