Burns tended to play mousey professional men in contemporary films and unshaven layabouts in period pictures.

The general run of Burns' screen assignments can be summed up by two roles at both ends of his career spectrum: he played "Loafer" in D.W. Griffith's} Abraham Lincoln (1930) and "Bum in Park" in Barefoot in the Park (1967). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
