Back-to-back Best Actor nominee of the 1940s

Usage examples of pidgeon.

There was a sheep-killing wolf about, and that redneck sheriff Otis Pidgeon would have to do something about it.

Their connection had begun several months earlier when Pidgeon had locked Ribaul up in their little jail for cause.

Soon after the arrest, Pidgeon gave Ribaul part-time employment and the run of the place.

Ribaul had a high loping walk and Pidgeon had trouble staying up with him.

The only things that struck Pidgeon in a different light were his own tracks of the night before.

They had the wolf boxed into the same rough double section of land where Pidgeon and Ribaul had hunted him before.

Sheriff Pidgeon shot the wolf clearly, right at the edge of that white blaze on the head.

The two men loaded in, and Pidgeon drove to a good spot on the red banks of the Red River.

Otis Pidgeon drove back to Royal Parish and arrested Ribaul and Madelon Lamotte for the murder of Jules Lamotte.

Ragley asked as Pidgeon and Ragley and Clela Ragley walked over the rock pasture of the events area.

And turned, Pidgeon watched the turning listlessly as his death closed in on him.

At that time, which was the period of transition from the silent movies to the talkies, Pidgeon was regarded as through in Hollywood and was playing in a summer stock theater in the East.

Shortly after our opening, Pidgeon signed a long-term movie contract with M-G-M, which was his new start in pictures, the beginning of his rise to stardom.

Slowing down to five miles per hour, the vehicles were tailed by hundreds of men, women, and children insulting the Nip prisoners in Tagalog, Ilocan dialect, and pidgeon Japanese.

Then a loud voice silenced us all, and Joe Pidgeon, our great logician, began to hold forth.
