R.I.P Jonathan "Pa" Kent
I had to do a shout out for Glenn Ford today. Most people our age remember him as Pa Kent from "Superman: The Motion Picture". While I haven't seen many of his films I do remember him from Midway, 3:10 to Yuma, and of course, Gilda.
Glenn Ford was considered one of the great actors of his era. Which is odd, as he was never even nominated for an Academy Award.
In regards to his role as Superman's adopted Father, Glenn Ford brought more to the role of Jonathan Kent than any comic book writer had ever done before. To this day, you can still see the influence of his performance on the character.
