		In 1977, Robertson made headlines when he was one of the whistle-blowers in the embezzlement scandal involving Columbia executive David Begelman -- a fact that did more harm to Robertson's career than Begelman's.

		Robertson, ever eager to tackle a new type of role, inverted this persona with considerable success in his chilling performance as an evil politician in "The Best Man" (1964).

		Robertson also made TV-movies regularly, playing the drunken father in a remake of "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" (1974) and astronaut "Buzz" Aldrin in "Return to Earth" (1976).

	Amazon.com: Charly: DVD: Cliff Robertson,Claire Bloom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Accordingly, Charly (Cliff Robertson) is a 30-year-old retardate whose doofus sweetness makes him superior to most able-minded folk, whether they're the bigoted dolts he sweeps floors for or the ambitious scientists who see him as the human equivalent of Algernon, a mouse they've surgically (but impermanently) smartened up.
		Cliff Robertson, whom I often felt was under-rated as an actor, portrays Charly's gradually-growing understanding of the world, with the resulting triumphs and heart-breaks, to perfection.
		Having said that, don't miss Cliff Robertson's outstanding performance in this heart-wrenching tale of a mentally challenged adult who overcomes his disability by receiving experimental surgery, only to be disappointed with the outcome, both in ways that have already been spoiled by others here and in other ways I will not spoil myself.
