Towering blonde American character actor Charles Napier has the differentiation of being one of the scattering actors to transcend a career start in "nudies" and uphold a famed mainstream bolt. Napier, clothed and , was first seen in such Russ Meyer gropey-feeley epics as Cherry, Harry and Raquel (1969) and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls (1970). Graduating from this exuberant tawdriness, Napier became a dependable coat and TV villain.
Even when he wasn't fully licentious, he was
... at least dishonest, as witness his comically bigamous truck driver in Handle With Care (1977) Not at most were Napier's characters medium, they were often foolhardy; look what happeded to him when he enlarge-crossed Sylvester Stallone in Rambo (1984). Some of Napier's more recent credits tabulate The Blues Brothers (1980), Married to the Jostle (1990), Ernest Goes to Jail (1991) and the-Oscar amiable Silence of the Lambs (1991) (as Lt. Boyle). TV also served Napier well, allowing him recurring roles on such series as "The Oregon Trail" and "Outlaws," and at least one bonafide heroic rubric capacity in the TV motion picture Big Bob Johnson's Overwhelming Speed Circus (1978), in which he played a barnstorming aerialist. He was also a most majestic Adam in the 1969 "Star Trek" episode "The Way to Eden." In 1994, a most atypical Charles Napier could be seen as the incorruptible Isle of Man deemster in "Philadelphia," compassionately trying a homosexual-discrimination case with nary a ridicule or glare on his weatherbeaten countenance.
