Raymond Burr Was Hollywood's Master Of Deceit


Hollywood star Raymond Burr deserves three different biographies: One for things that are true, one for things that might be true, and one for things that were bald-faced lies. The problem is, it's hard to say which parts are false and which are true.

Robert Blake walked free from one of Hollywood’s most notorious trials—but the case only got stranger after the verdict.

Robert Blake was best known for Baretta and a long film career dating back to childhood roles. By the early 2000s, he was a recognizable but quieter presence in Hollywood until his name became tied to one of the most talked-about and controversial cases in the history of Hollywood.
