The Illustrious Player's From Hollywood's Golden Period
Back in 1999, The American Film Institute came out with the directory of the top 50 stars from the memoirs of American Motion pictures. These stars are from the commencement and the golden times of Hollywood. Many of today's actors may have more genius and they may be better actors but these fine actors will always be remembered.
The register begins out with the well-known Humphrey Bogart. Humphrey Bogart acted in 75 movies starting in the 1930's and up to the 1950's. His most famous role was perhaps the part of Rick Blaine in one of the most famous movies of all times, "Casablanca". He was born on Christmas day, December 25, 1899. He died on January 14, 1957 from cancer of the esophagus.
The subsequent actor on theregister, at the number 2 spot, is Archibald Alexander Leach, who is of course, better identified as Cary Grant. Cary Grant was born on January 18, 1904. He passed on November 29, 1986. Jimmy Stewart, who played the lead in the beloved Christmas movie that is still shown every year, "It's a Wonderful Life", follows him at the number 3 spot.
Marlon Brando, Jr. is next at the number 4 spot. Marlon was born on April 3, 1924 and he passed away on July 1, 2004. The next spot goes to one of the most celebrated dancers in history, Fred Astaire. He was born Frederick Austerlitz on May 10, 1899 and he passed on on June 27, 1987. His film career continued over seventy-six years, during which he made thirty-one musical films. He made 10 films with Ginger Rogers, another dancer with whom he is most often linked.
At number six on the catalog, there is Henry Fonda. Henry was born May 16, 1905 and he died August 12, 1982. At number 7 on the catalog is the man who played the lead part in the show with the top box office success of all times, Clark Gable. In 1937, he played Rhett Butler in the movie "Gone With The Wind".
The position of the number 8 spot goes to James Cagney. He is followed at number 9 by Spencer Tracy. Spencer Tracy was part of one of the most thriving movie pairings in the past along with Katharine Hepburn, who just happens to hold the top spot on the catalog of actresses.
The only artist from the silent film time to make the catalog comes in at number ten. Charlie Chaplin began his well-known career back in 1916, before the days of "talking" motion pictures. His first true "talking" motion picture came about in 1940, "The Great Dictator".
Much loved actors, actresses and motion pictures will forever remain a subjective valuation as everybody has their personal estimation of what they prefer. However, these stars positively made their mark on film history and their work is well recognized. - 18780
