Well, I'll see you this, and raise you The Sword and the Sorcerer.

Jack Palance has to be one of the most interesting people to ever be in film. He worked in a coal mine as a kid, had over 15 fights as a professional boxer, flew in a B-24 in WWII, went to Stanford, was Brando's understudy on stage, earned an Oscar nomination in one of his first films, then another the next year, ended up doing movies all over Europe for decades, and then ended up winning an Oscar 40 years after his first nomination for a small role in a comedy. He's also related to Chuck Palahniuk, who wrote Fight Club
