@avengedpeanut1339 3 жыл бұрын

He was star of the month a few months ago. Having seen his films that TCM shown has peaked my interest in him. This man was a phenomenal actor, and because of that I'm watching every film he was in. So far I've seen 32 of his films and counting.

When sound came in, audiences fell in love with unique voices. So while there were traditionally handsome stars, it was also possible for the Robinsons and Bogarts of this world to be appreciated for their talent.

@@steelers6titles His performance in Key Largo is a classic. You can watch it again and again and each time you notice the subtleness of his master of the craft of acting. That picture truly has an all star cast. Clair Trevor won an Academy Award in 1948 as Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of the alcoholic former singer girlfriend of Rico, Gaye Dawn. Edit: Oops! Not Rico but Rocco!!!

@@The_ZeroLine I guess you could make a point that the past seems more glorious to some than it should be: after all, in 1939 alone, something like 365 movies were released, whereas today I doubt a third that number make it to the screen. So just by sheer numbers, the best of Old Hollywood seems to shine brighter than today's best movies; simply more of them. But you really don't have the actors you had then and modern screen writers may have the potential of greatness but the studio demands to turn out junk overwhelms the talent. In other words, I am politely disagreeing with you.
