Also, please add to his credits: Abraham Lincoln, And Then There Were None and Dodsworth, he's the hero in all of those. Also, please add Duel in the Sun and The Furies, his last role.
He was a helluva of an actor, I don't think any of the subsequent Hustons have outmatched him in sheer acting talent yet. When the author of Treasure felt Walter was not elderly enough for the part of Howard so Walter popped out his dentures to convince him. Allegedly, Walter Brennan did the same thing when forging into colorful old coot parts.
