Spencer Tracy

Spencer Tracy was an enigma. He could be cruel and heartless toward some actors with whom he worked, but kind to others. Director Robert Wise says, 'When we did a film called Tribute to a Bad Man, he couldn't have been more mean and nasty to his co-stars. He ignored and upstaged young Robert Francis to the where the kid was hurt, bewildered and demoralized.' On the other hand, Robert Wagner says, 'After I worked with him in The Mountain, he became a sort of father to me. We became good friends and he helped me in my development as an actor until the day he died.' There was a similar dichotomy in Tracy's relations with directors. Generally he would along with everything a director wanted, but as Stanley Kramer says, he could be difficult: 'There were times, when he disagreed with me, when he could wither me with a glance. If his forehead was shiny and I sent a make-up man over to powder-puff it, he'd push the man away.' These were comparatively reactions, although with the highly respected Walter Lang, Tracy was rude.
