Just started watching perry mason, a show that started before my dad was born Sublime performance from raymond, the way he carries himself onscreen - harrowing indeed
Love Raymond Burr, the world seemed a safer and fairer place when Perry Mason was at work. More than once he had to ask Paul Drake for a dime to make an important phone call. Also kills me that when Tragg is at a suspects home he has to ask permission to use their phone before he takes the " downtown.
Raymond Burr was a truly brilliant actor who had few equals in the acting profession. I don't think he ever made a bad performance in anything he ever appeared in.
RIP.❤ Raymond Burr. Best hours of entertainment this wonderful actor gave us. I have seen all the episodes of Perry Mason and still I don't get tired of watching. So many wannabe attorneys were inspired by this show: Very few show the empathy that he demonstrated. However, I have met and worked with many that show the qualities and they all have said when they saw this show as kids inspired them to become good attorneys. ❤
Recently found out the great Raymond Burr was gay. 35 years with his partner Robert Benevides. Hidden ‘marriage’ - I’m glad he wouldnt have to hide this if he were alive today.
Started watching Perry Mason as a kid with my mom! I can’t explain how much I love this man’s acting! The way he takes a quick short deep breath before speaking fascinates me! Been watching the reruns for decades! Just watched part of an episode on lunch break today! No lie! I’m ALL in with Raymond Burr! 😎
I agree but Raymond Burr was a very generous man. He gave a lot of money to charities and was always there for a friend in need. When the actor that played Hamilton Burger (William Talman) got in a little trouble and was fired from the show, it was Ray Burr who was instrumental in Talman being rehired.
I watched Perry Mason as a child and teenager! I have rediscovered it this year! I just love him! Today, May 21, is his birthday! Happy birthday in Heaven Raymond Burr!
