Malden was one of my favourite actors.
He also co-starred in a foreign-produced film from 1971 called Cat O' Nine Tails as a blind (former) police detective alongside a reporter played by James Franciscus (who also portrayed a blind ex-cop investigator on the '71-72 series Longstreet).

He is one of those, I thought he was already dead guys.

97? That's a good long life.
