Karl Malden has died at the age of 97 .... he leaves behind some of the most solid work in Hollywood. He was never a 'star' with all the glamour, but he was a very good, actually excellent actor ...
He starred with Brando, when Brando was at his very best ... and held his own
One of his final gigs was playing a priest on The West Wing ... and he was still a solidly excellent actor ... completely believable ....
May he rest in peace
