Allan hardly played the leading man in his filmography, but he did a helluva job with smaller roles in a number of huge hit films and shows dating back to the '60s and '70s. Perhaps most notably, he starred in flicks like"Serpico,""The Gambler" and"The Happy Hooker." His acting career saw a nice steady rise in the '90s, with notable appearances in films like"Disclosure,""Amistad,""Quiz Show,""Jack," and many others. He often played a judge or a lawman of some sort -- Allan had a deep, authoritative voice ... and fit the part well.
