/common    • George Raft was an American film actor and dancer
identified with portrayals of gangsters in crime melodramas of
the 1930s and 1940s. A stylish leading man in dozens of movies,
today George Raft is mostly known for his gangster roles in the
original Scarface, Each Dawn I Die, and Billy Wilder's 1959
comedy Some Like it Hot, as a dancer in Bolero, and a truck
driver in They Drive by Night. Raft's real-life association with
New York gangsters gave his screen image in mob films an added
realism. He also gained retrospective notoriety for the leading
roles that he turned down--only to have those roles become
breakout hits for other actors.  Freebase Commons People /people
