Robert Duvall is one of the most beloved actors in Hollywood. Starting out in theater in the 1950s, he moved to television and film roles by the turn of the decade. He achieved fame for his roles in M*A*S*H, To Kill a Mockingbird, and THX 1138. He has also appeared in countless, critically acclaimed films throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and some have remarked that he was ‘Hollywood’s No. 1 or No. 2 lead’. Among the notable films he appeared in include The Godfather, Apocalypse Now, The Conversation, and Tender Mercies, with the latter winning him an Oscar.
