Just an answer please.

haggard

His illness shows through the performance. He looks tired, and haggard throughout.

But you say, "The character is tired and haggard, so shouldn't the actor act that way?"

"Yes," of course, I'll answer, "but Bogart practically made a career of tired, haggard characters yet in films like Casablanca or Treasure of the Sierra Madre he embodied the characters and made them look tired." Here, you see an actor who is a master craftsman performing at a much lower level than what we've come to expect.

But, look, I spit on no man's grave. Remember a fine actor's better performances; let a dead man have his dignity.
