Description

Great Performers with Marc Courtade. Burt Lancaster was a former circus acrobat who achieved Hollywood stardom in his first film. Lancaster alternated athletic roles with more sensitive portrayals including The Crimson Pirate, middle-aged alcoholic Doc Delaney in Come Back, Little Sheba, and the lecherous charlatan in Elmer Gantry. His tryst with Deborah Kerr in From Here to Eternity is one of the most iconic moments in screen history.  Join us in a tribute to this Academy Award winning actor.
