One of the last, or possibly the last, of the great hell raisers from the 1950s and 60s cinema. He was a great actor too.

A pretty long life for a Hollywood type. Probably with all the alcohol and drugs that are consumed by actors, he was able to live a long life.

He had a sense of humor too ...

Loved him in My Favorite Year, where he played a parody of himself:

RIP Peter O’ Toole

My all time favorite actor. He was THE BEST!

His acting in “Rogue Male” took my breath away.

and Lawrence of Arabia for today in his honor-

He also played the Old Testament prophet Samuel in the 2006 Christian film “One Night With The King” and the angel who visited Abraham concerning the upcoming destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah in “The Bible....In the Beginning”.
