Keep. Significant roles in Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Out of the Darkness, 52 Pick-Up and My Demon Lover are good for NACTOR. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:54, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Well, there's this [1], not the most flattering role, but there seems to be some indication of notability. Still need sourcing that talks about this individual. Oaktree b (talk) 20:06, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and improve or draftify. He has been in so many films, some of them non-minor roles, as well as a one-man show that sounds pretty interesting - I am sure that there is more press coverage out there to establish his notability. Llajwa (talk) 20:41, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep While he has mostly been cast in supporting roles, the number of films he has starred in makes Trebor notable, in my opinion. The article is poorly sourced but most of the information is verifiable. Trebor has received some attention even for his minor roles:

Variety: "Trebor is superb as the acerbic Davidykov, ironically bemoaning, “We used to be such a beautiful police state,” and then affectingly describing how for all of communism’s faults, how important it was that the whole country was experiencing it together. Trebor’s Russian accent is excellent, and his perf is multilayered and nimble."

Los Angeles Times: "Beautifully performed by Armstrong and Trebor, Will and Viktor are moral men adrift in societies that reward avarice over character"

Los Angeles Times: "Martin Sheen is first-rate as Zigo, and there are convincing supporting performances here by Jennifer Salt as Ann and Robert Trebor as Berkowitz."

The New York Times: "His partners in crime are Robert Trebor, who provides comic relief as the proprietor of a pornographic photo studio."

The New York Times: "Robert Trebor is gripping as the community leader."

RogerEbert.com: "Seidelman also has fun populating the outskirts of her plot with good character actors, especially Robert Trebor as the tuxedo salesman. You may remember him as the smarmy, sweating porno store operator in "52 Pick-Up." The distance between these two good performances is impressive." Mooonswimmer 18:27, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
