He had some pretty awful views that he was pretty loud about, especially later in life. He also cheated on his wife at one point.
However, so as not to speak (purely) ill of the dead, I will say that he was an accomplished martial artist with a prolific film career.
To be fair, you probably have some views some people think are pretty awful.
If I can quote Chael Sonnen, I’d like to say ”you absolutely suck!”
"Don't speak ill of the dead"?
How about "Don't be a bad person when you're alive"?

In 1961, in his early 20s. You get ~80 years on this planet to make mistakes and have views that some other people will dislike. If these are the worst things we can accuse him of, while acknowledging all his charitable work, I'd say he fared OK compared to many other role models we have.
