New York AP reports actor Daniel Massey experiences a mixed blessing after receiving an Academy Award nomination. The piece notes the heightened attention, potential pressures, and the career implications that accompany such recognition in Hollywood.
Massey, up for a supporting actor award for Noel Coward in Star, laments Hollywood’s typecasting. He notes audiences still see him as Abe Lincoln or Dr. Gillespie and explains the industry’s blinders. He stars with William Shatner and William Windom in Shadow Game, CBS Playhouse’s blackout drama.
He mentions a 1966 movie The Queens Guards and notes his father wanted him to star in a revival of Abe Lincoln in Illinois. He opposes the idea, believing the original memory should remain undisturbed and that his father had put the play to bed.
