John Gavin was most widely known as an actor in the 1960s. He appeared in several films considered to be classics or near-classics, and on screen Gavin often seemed more of a mannequin than an actor. His first film was the lurid 1956 western Raw Edge, where every man wanted to kill Yvonne De Carlo's husband so they could ravish her themselves. In the low-budget Behind the Wall, he was wrongfully convicted but broke out of jail. He earned some of his best reviews with a leading role in A Time to Love and a Time to Die, as a dashing German officer.
