- Walter Brennan Was The Most Evil Man in Hollywood
More than 50 years after his death, the nearly forgotten memories of Walter Brennan are relived in the minds of all who hear of him, although not for palatable reasons. Known for being the first actor to win the Best Supporting Actor Award three times, Walter’s versatility in his movies and his resilience to push forward have been his notable traits, however, his controversial views are what he’s infamous for today. How did a beloved actor come to be known as the most evil man in Hollywood? Let’s find out!
He wasn't any different than a lot of people during the cold War, building bunkers. He is no way the most evil man in Hollywood. There were and are more evil men than him.
I was fortunate enough to visit the Desilu Studio with my father at the age of 11. They took us onto the set of the real McCoys where I got to meet Richard Crenna and Walter Brennan. My memory of Mr Brennan was totally positive. I asked him what was wrong with his leg because he limped. He took off his boot and showed me a wooden wedge that was placed in the heel of one boot that reminded him to limp. He said it was Very uncomfortable. He is in no way struck me as an evil person ,he seemed very outgoing ,and as an 11-year-old I liked him.
He would lose his mind if he saw what's going on in America today.
No, he was not evil except by today’s cancel culture standards. He was a man who stood by his principles, right or wrong. At least he wasn’t a phony, as so many in Hollywood are and have been.
He had his opinions about everything like all of us do.
Compared to the evil in Hollywood today Brennan would be considered a choir boy!
He was only saying out loud what so many others were thinking because he had a platform to use and they didn't. So much of what he believed was merely foreshadowing of what we live with today. He was not evil. He was outspoken.
Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.
He was one of the best actors back in those days.
I'm old enough to remember him in many of the westerns my dad watched. I really liked him. He was a solid character I thought. He made the entire story come together and feel real. Rest in peace Walter. ⚘️🕊
Great man who stood up for what he believed.
Sounds like he was a normal person with his own beliefs just like anyone else. Damn good actor and a smart man
If Walter was alive today, he's probably say, I told you so.
I know he was conservative. That does not make him evil.
Not evil at all.
My my, if Brennan was evil--just think how many "evil" people there are in this world. Sure would like to see his old movies in TV because he was a great actor.
He was a great actor and not afraid to express his personal beliefs!!
In Westerns, I don't believe that anyone could play the parts that he played.
With John Wayne, James Garner, just to name s couple, I just don't believe that those Westerns could not of been of some of the best, without him.
I am anti-Comunist too.
Man of his time when critical thinking was allowed
Turns out Walter was right about the communists. He was just 50 years ahead of time.
He was ahead of his time. Soon, (I pray) God, mother, and country will be popular again.
WOW! Imagine thinking that the Vietnamese Communists were supported by Communists in Russia and China! SOOOO CRAZY! Also, Completely crazy to think that blacks in Los Angeles might be encouraged to riot by a few Communist agitators. Wow he's so CRAZY!!!!!!! I guess this is how you get your student film approved. for class credit at San Dimas Community College.
At that time, a great many people blamed communism for the protests.
Well I would not call him EVIL just because of his personal feelings towards skin color or political /social views. On some I agree with him. He was just honest and free to be open for what he wanted. Should not real freedom let every human to be this way??? Do I have to like what you like??? Definitely not.
I loved Walter Brennan. He was a great actor and a good man.
A great actor, No Brag Just Fact.
Will always remember him as "Grand Pa" in "The Real McCoy's "
Always loved Walter Brennan. He was a very engaging actor on screen. May he rest in peace. RIP. 🙏
Looks like he pretty much was right about the direction of the country was going! As far as the story goes, there’s a lot of accusations about him being a bigot in interviews but not one clip of them? It’s easy for assassinate a man’s character after he’s dead and buried…
The most evil men in Hollywood are still living there sadly.
Walter Brennan was a hard working man, a good husband and father.
A great actor and successful businessman.
Walter was a man ahead of his time.
Walter was absolutely correct
slander and smear anyone who speaks the truth about them and exposes them.
The way america is going today, he was spot on.
Walter Brennan was as fine of a man i ever met. He was honest, believed in family , love neighbors , loved God & country.
Walter Brenan he's one of the greatest actor. Love him in Rio Bravo
Thanks for this info. I never knew all this. I like him even more after learning some of this.
He was not an evil man sounded like a good man just had his thoughts. He didn’t hurt anybody freedom of speech.
He may have been a little early in some of his beliefs but most were not wrong. I remember a lot about his acting. “The Real McCoys” was one of my favorite shows as a kid. RIP Mr Brennan
This man was tough. A real man.
I liked Walter Brennan
I loved the Real Mcoys! I waspretty young at that time.Wish they'd show them again on T.V
He was ahead of his time...Turns out he was right.
Given what Putin and Xi are up to, Walter may have had some insight after all.
Sadly, 50 years later, we discover he was right.
I just remember seeing him in "The Real McCoys" on TV when I was a kid. He was memorable in that series. He was great in the film about Judge Roy Bean called "The Westerner". It was a brilliant performance in my opinion.
The hardest part about this is that he was not entirely wrong.
he seemed to be right on target
He was a very good actor, no matter what people say .
I was a little girl when I watched the Real McCoys on tv. I loved him as Grandpa . I wished he was my grandpa. ❤ I tried to get my real grandpa to limp like grandpa McCoy.😂😂😂😂. Sometimes he’d humor me and did. ❤
First one here. He was a great actor and loved all his movies with John Wayne.
He was an awesome actor. No brag - just fact..
Yes there are a lot more in Hollywood who are worse than he was I believe .
Interesting the community he lived in had respect for him so exactly where are you coming up with these so called stories and many with the studios didn’t have so called stories…
Well, everybody is called a racist these days for almost anything they might say.
Now I like him even more!
He was great in Rio Bravo 😊
Didn't know this about him. I think I will put one of his great records on now! RIP Walter.
Great actor, his views today would not go down with the public, I will not stand in judgement of Walter Brennan..
In an insightful twist, it would seem that through his harsh stance on certain issues, which today would be politically incorrect, the resulting direction of our society is proving that maybe his perspective on the results of the directions that Walter Brennan envisioned have actually become reality in the world we inhabit today. While diplomacy was obviously not his strong suit, what he personally believed was what he stood for, and like it or not, his insight into the future that is today could be considered somewhat accurate. Whatever we think of his personal stands on issues, he had an amazing career, worked through tough times and circumstances, and has become, in that arena, a memorable actor.
I can still hear his voice in those movies.
Walter also appeared in 2 Three Stooges shorts, first in Woman Haters sleeping on the train and 2nd in the Restless Knights where he played the Three Stooges father,
He was very forward thinking
Did not know of his WW1 time served.
My grandfather also served during WW1 and his lungs were burned by mustard gas.
Love Walter he was a great man thangs where a lot different back then never heard of him being a racist I’ve heard he thought the Kennedys were not good for our country that’s all don’t like talking about a man that can’t defend himself may him and wife rest in peace true love ❤️
Mr. Brennan was one of the earliest supporters of "Ronald Reagan for Governor". That's good enough for me.
A good old fashioned country man, with morals.
Just look what is happening on college campuses today.
The man was a visionary. And he was right.
Great man!!! Wish we had more like him today. I have more respect for him now than ever!
Walter Brennan was a man of his times. He was spot on about removing prayer from the schools. As a Catholic, I understand that there are many non-denominational prayers out there that don't infringe on anyone's belief other than an acceptance of a supreme being. Look at children and young adults today, the godlessness is rampant.
I used to see him at church on sunday mornings in salem massachusetts.
I remember watching westerns with my dad that had him in them. I liked his laugh. The real McCoys was good!
Old time real men were what made this country great....
If Walter Brennan had been a Black Man talking about White folks he would have been Applauded and Celebrated! We are All of Our Time!
A product of his time. Born in mid-1894, his views perfectly reflected the vast majority of Americans, North, South, East, and West, through the next century and at least the first quarter of this one. My own Southern born and raised grandmother held similar beliefs, though not as virulent nor outspoken. Yet, her children and grandchildren saw the lie for what it is.
He was a good man , ahead of his time. He said what he thought was right, and he was right.
I remember him doing song called "Old Shep".
He was tame and loved compared to some of these foolish actors of today. I wont mention names just pray for them. They arè obvious.
I think he was right about a lot of things
WB was a good husband and family man - he had those values
Brennan was a man of his time. A racist today may have been a red-blooded American of the past. You can trust a man who speaks his mind. It's those who hide their thoughts you have to be cautious with. You never know when they will turn on you. Brennan was a great actor. Loved his work. When I was a teenager, I loved him on The Real McCoys.
Prayer should be allowed in school or anywhere else.
He played a back stabber in How the West was won a great movie 👍
Sounds like a good guy to me.
I don't know about Walter Brinen being the most evil man in Hollywood. You didn't mention him in the movie Support Your Local Sheriff. Which I believe he should have gotten another Oscar. I thought he was a strong in that movie as any of the other actors. That my opinion anyways.
As a young girl I fell in love with Grandpa McCoy ❤❤❤
Him and the Duke must have gotten along just fine.
Walter Brennan stood up against the filth and perversion we see today in movies and TV.
I thought most evil was OJ and Scott Peterson😢
I took an acting class in high school. I modeled my acting using him as my model, won a most improved actor award! Do not know if I was really good, or was really bad, but I will take any credit as long as it emulates great talent!
One day I'm gonna climb that mountain !!
He’s not forgotten
Everything Walter Brennan thought was exactly right!
If he could look back, he would say he was right. He was on the mark. Look at where we are now. He wasn't evil. His ideas were forth coming. Wise man.
I like Walter Brenan.
I always liked him in his movies....No one is perfect....Removing prayer and the pledge of alligence from our schools was a terrible idea as you can now see the results of it....I don't consider him evil just opinionated....
Sounds like he knew what he was talking about.
Damn, I pretty much agree with nearly everything Walter Brennan believed in...I don't see him as evil at all.
