He began his professional acting career in 1954 and began appearing in small roles in movies and television in 1957. His first major movie credit was as a soldier, Lance Corporal 'Mac' Macleish in "The Long and the Short and the Tall (1961)". He specialized in playing nasty, brutish types, such as the piggish Private Campbell in Robert Aldrich's World War II drama "The Too Late the Hero (1970)", who robs a corpse, kills a fellow British solder, and deserts his compatriots to surrender to the Japanese before being strung up like a slaughtered hog by the enemy. He also appeared in Aldrich's "Killing of Sister George (1968)" and gave a memorable performance as Sergeant Watson in the original "The Flight of the Phoenix (1965)", also directed by Aldrich. He was versatile enough as an actor to occasionally break type, such as his turn as Colonel Pickering in the 1981 "Pygmalion (1981) (TV)", which starred Twiggy as Eliza Dolittle. Ronald Fraser died on March 13, 1997, a month shy of his 67th birthday. hide |
