(2003) Many actors in their 70s gripe that they're lucky to land marginal roles as somebody's grandpa, but not so with Robert Duvall, who says he's getting more acting offers the older he gets -- This year alone, Duvall has been seen as Robert E. Lee in GODS AND GENERALS, and has plum parts as an eccentric uncle with a shady past in the upcoming SECONDHAND LIONS and as a trail boss in Kevin Costner's Western OPEN RANGE. (April 1, 2003) Directing a film and starring in it sounds like a lot of work, but Duvall says doing double duty is a pleasure -- He wears both hats, and added another - that of script writer - for ASSASSINATION TANGO, in which he plays a hit man who's sent on a job to Argentina and falls in love with a dancer. (March 10, 2003) Duvall opened his Byrnley Farm in Virginia to about 800 local residents and friends for a gala to raise money for the local Loudon Healthcare Foundation and Loudon Hospital Center (October 1, 2002) Despite the proficiency displayed in his new film ASSASSINATION TANGO -- and his passion for the art – Duvall said he does not consider himself a capable tango dancer.

Fractured several ribs in April 2002 after falling off horse while rehearsing for role in OPEN RANGE In ANGELO MY LOVE (1983), the two men who sing Golden Days in a restaurant scene are Duvall's brothers.

James Garner was chosen next but bowed out due to health reasons, and Jon Voight turned down the role, so Tommy Lee Jones was cast. However, both James Garner and Jon Voight would portray Woodrow Call in sequels. Was considered for the role of Hannibal Lecter and Jeremy Irons turned it down. (SILENCE OF THE LAMBS, THE (1991)) Stayed out of the sun for six weeks and died his hair blond for the role of Boo Radley in TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD (1962) who, according to the story, spent much of his life locked in a cellar.
