MINI BIO:
George Macready was noted as one of America's most distinctive villains -- a blond, blue-eyed death's head of a man with an aristocratic sneer on the upper lip. Macready created a whole range of polished, distinguished nasties and scoundrels, nearly all with a civilized veneer (1946, Gilda, 1964, Dead Ringer). He died from emphysema just after retirement.

George Macready Quotes:
Tip Henry:
He said he'd come back every night and shoot up the place until I moved or got killed. And he said to tell you that he wouldn't need any Indians to help him do the job.
Younger Miles: What did you say about Indians?
Tip Henry: I don't savvy the Indian part. Did you know Danning from someplace else?
Younger Miles: [Miles picks up a pair of spurs from the table and slashes Henry across the face] That'll teach you not to walk out on me, you yellow back!
Emperor Maximillian: [In a shooting contest, he fires his rifle at the torch that his servant is carrying. He misses, shrugs, and says:] Perhaps I'd better stop. We have a servant problem as it is.
Mme. de Montrevel: His Majesty adores Gaston!
Gaston de Montrevel: [laughing in embarrassment] Table talk!
