I actually liked Charlton Heston, aside from his stint with the NRA advocating firepower, self-defense, and the one useless amendment to the constitution. Most of the post-Baby boom generation remembers him from his work in the Planet of the Apes series. And Ben Hur.
In his best movie roles, he had this populist heroism going into head-to-head combat with ignorance and oppression. Yeah some of his movies were jokes. But don't forget, despite his later bad rug and ranting about guns, that he was marching with the civil rights people back in 1963.
