Mohr, Please



Gerald Mohr (June 11, 1914 - November 9, 1968) was the quintessential "B" flick tough guy: kinda smooth, kinda sleazy, but kinda sexy, too. Like so many of our beloved heroes and heroines of yesteryear, Mohr never became a star on the level of Bogie or Douglas (or even Aldo Ray), but nevertheless, he carved out a nice niche for himself before his untimely death. Along the way, Mohr had small parts opposite Rita Hayworth and Barbra Streisand, and on-screen clinches with Allison "Attack of the 50 Ft. Woman" Hayes and Mamie Van Doren, all of which combined may qualify him as the gayest heterosexual in filmdom history.
