George C Scott (the C is for Campbell) was an actor, director, and producer, best known for his Academy Award winning performance in the film “Patton.” He reluctantly talks about turning down that Oscar. He received four nominations for “The Hustler,” “The List of Adrian Messenger,” “Dr. Strangelove” and “The Bible: In the Beginning.” He also won several Tony nominations for roles that included “Inherit the Wind.” He often worked with his wives Colleen Dewhurst and Trish Van Devere.
