Why he might be annoying:

    He quit school a year before graduation to pursue his childhood dream of becoming an actor.
    In his entire acting career, he never had a full head of hair.
    In the 1970's, he began to appear in many really terrible horror and occult B-movies.

Why he might not be annoying:

    During WW II, he enlisted in the British Royal Air Force. But tragedy struck when his plane was shot down over France, and he was thrown into a Nazi prisoner-of-war camp. During the last year of the war, he spent his time being beaten and tortured by sadistic Nazi guards.
    He is best known for his role in 'The Great Escape.'
    He was a very nice man.
