I don’t care what anyone says. Mitchum’s role in Cape Fear was way more menacing than De Niro’s character.

Blast you for beating me to
Cape Fear and the most menacing performance ever.
Pinging Travis McGee (welcome back), who’ll get the connection.

You won’t get any argument from me on that.

Robert Mitchum is one of the most underrated film actors of all time.

Mitchum was capable of projecting evil, as also in the movie in which he portrays a malevolent preacher.(Can’t remember the name). The remake of “Cape Fear” was weaker because the “hero” was no better than the Villain. I recall a priest saying that Mitchum must be a very good man, otherwise he could not interpret evil so well. He was a decent poet, that is for sure.
