Paul Genge, Bullitt


I wonder if this got him the role in Bullitt.

Watched an episode of Perry Mason last night. It had Paul Genge in it as a criminal. He goes into a hospital to get to an injured woman he tried to murder. Later, he tried to hijack a truck Paul Drake was driving and dies in a fiery car crash. All stuff he did  two years later in Bullitt.

Things like that happen. Janet Leigh thought she got the part in Psycho because of her motel scenes in A Touch of Evil. In Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, Jodie Foster played an older version of essentially the same character she did in The Courtship of Eddie's Father but I don't know if that got her the part.
