victoria, jack was absoulutely terrific in a very small film called 'edge of the city'. it starred sidney poitier and john cassavetes. jack was the overbearing boss of the 2 of them as they worked on a loading dock. it is a gem of a movie. the ending is just fantastic.
he was a wonderful actor...and he will be missed....
Jack Warden was in one of my favorite movies "12 Angry Men", which also had Columbo veteran John Fiedler, along with Jack Klugman, Robert Webber, Lee J Cobb, E G Marshall. The film is about the deliberations of a jury in a death penalty case. Warden's character kept complaining that they were taking too long in reaching a decision because he had tickets to a ball game!
