Essential Walter Matthau Films

Amazon.com
Already a stage veteran by the time he graduated to movies, Walter Matthau has translated his skills as a character actor into over four decades of screen credits. If his earliest celluloid roles often tapped into convincing, even brutal villainy, it's as a rumpled, tragicomic Everyman that Matthau has found his commercial métier, creating a succession of hapless and ultimately sympathetic (if frequently abrasive) victims of life's circumstances. In between, he's etched indelible portraits of con men, cops, robbers, and even septuagenarian romantics. A deft farceur, Matthau's familial career is noteworthy for long collaborations with author Neil Simon and actor Jack Lemmon.
