Biography

Venu tenter sa chance à Hollywood en 1958, Edward Faulkner rencontre Andrew V. McLaglen pour lequel il tournera à plusieurs reprises, au cinéma comme à la télévision (deux séries — dès 1959 — et deux téléfilms). Au nombre de ses huit films aux côtés du réalisateur (sortis de 1961 à 1971), mentionnons les westerns Le Grand McLintock (1963, avec John Wayne et Maureen O'Hara) et Les Géants de l'Ouest (1969, avec John Wayne et Rock Hudson).

Notons qu'il retrouve The Duke sur quatre autres films, dont Les Bérets verts de Ray Kellogg et John Wayne (1968) et Rio Lobo d'Howard Hawks (1970).

En tout, il participe à vingt-huit films américains, le premier (dans un petit rôle non-crédité) étant Café Europa en uniforme de Norman Taurog (avec Elvis Presley), sorti en 1960. Ses deux derniers à ce jour sortent en 1974.

Au petit écran, à partir de 1959, Edward Faulkner contribue à quarante-neuf séries et douze téléfilms, dont les séries-westerns Rawhide (sept épisodes — trois réalisés par Andrew V. McLaglen —, 1959-1964, avec Clint Eastwood) et Le Virginien (onze épisodes, 1963-1970, avec James Drury). Ses deux dernières prestations à ce jour sont pour deux téléfilms d'animation (où il prête sa voix), diffusés respectivement en 2009 et 2010 (le second, dont il est en outre coréalisateur, expérience unique).

At Medfield College, science buff Dexter Riley and his friends, including Richard Schuyler and Debbie Dawson, eavesdrop via a hidden walkie-talkie on a board meeting led by Dean Eugene Higgins, discussing the small college's continuing precarious finances. Later that afternoon, Professor Lufkin shows Higgins around the science lab where Dexter is working on an experiment with invisibility and another student, Druffle, explores the flight of bumblebees. That night, unknown to anyone, during a powerful thunderstorm, the roof of the lab is struck by lightning, sending a current of electricity down a metal beam and through Dexter's complex experiment components. The next day, as Dexter examines his burnt equipment with dismay, Higgins meets with A. J. Arno, a recently released prisoner, who had also purchased Medfield's mortgage. When Dexter accidentally drops one half of his glasses into a container of his experimental formula, it appears as if the substance destroys them, but upon closer examination, Dexter realizes the frames are merely partially invisible. After several excited tests, Dexter boldly places his fingers in the liquid and they disappear. Schuyler and Debbie arrive and are horrified to see Dexter with a partial hand, but Dexter insists Schuyler test the substance as well, admitting only afterward that he does not yet have an antidote.

Ned Forsythe (Peter Jason), in charge of the Union troops on a Union army payroll train. However, Confederates led by Capt. Pierre Cordona (Jorge Rivero) and Sgt. Tuscarora Phillips (Christopher Mitchum) hijack the train. They have an elegant plan of listening in on the telegraph wires, greasing the tracks to stop the train, disconnecting the payroll wagon from the engine so it would roll back down the hill, using a hornet's nest to force the Union guards to jump off the train, then catching the train with many ropes tied to trees. In the process, Lt. Forsythe is fatally injured.
