His name was in the credits. But I still didn’t recognize him. Do you?
Please, guess and guess again. I’m going to be away from screens for a bit; I’ll drop a hint in the not too distant future if necessary.
Someone guessed Mark Hamill, and there is a strong resemblance. But this actor was born much earlier.
*
Here’s a hint: here the actor is playing a bad guy. But he’s best known for a role on the right side of the law.
*
One more hint: That role was in something whose title gave rise to a memorable bit of slang.

I’ll leave the name in the comments. Anyone who still wants to guess is welcome to do so.

Mark Hamill?
Not him.
Burt Lancaster?
Not him.
It is on my bucket list to attend the annual sardine festival in Portugal before I leave this world. Keeping my fingers crossed!
🤞🏻!
Audie Murphy
Not him. I will drop another hint.
That’s Jack Lord as Coaley in Man of the West (dir. Anthony Mann, 1958), now showing in the Criterion Channel’s Noir in Color feature. The slang: 5-0, as heard in The Wire. Part of our household’s vocabulary since 2015.
Lord made a previous mystery appearance in this post, looking like Chet Baker.
