“The Role I Like Best ….” by Dan Duryea, Saturday Evening Post, October 9, 1948, pg. 59.
I LOVE Dan Duryea. You can check out him out at his smarmiest best in this memorable role, as well as other downbeat film noirs on hoopla. It’s available 24/7, which we provide and other libraries do too. If you live in California, you can get a temporary virtual library card with us.
