Richard Kimble

The pilot, as it happens Ol' Bob definitely made the right career decision

I was waiting for some lady poster to mention him as equal time for Sherry Lansing

Did you read the OP?

I was going more for people who weren't well known as actors Definitely wasn't going for this sort of thing. Let's not even talk about Barbara Payton.

Never seen C-a-L or Sherman as an actor. Saw Quine in some MGM musical, wasn't impressed. Much better was Norman Foster who appears to advantage as the son in State Fair. But he was probably an aging juvenile, and was smart in turning to directing. IIRC he appears in the film version of One Third Of A Nation. He also had a very brief Hollywood career. After making The World In His Arms, director Raoul Walsh took him out, got him drunk, told him, "Kid, if you stay in this town you'll become a bum", and put him on a plane for England.

Yakima Canutt?

Idea suggested in the First Impressions thread. People who started out as actors but made their name in other fields (Please no Ronald Reagan or other future politicians. Only you can prevent political arguments on the board). Elia Kazan with Jimmy Cagney in City For Conquest. A really bad rug, beneath which is Ross Hunter (future producer of Airport) as Judy Canova's leading man in Louisiana Hayride. Ernst Lubitsch (left) in Shoe Palace Pinkus (1918). Sherry Lansing, presumably the sexiest studio chief in Hollywood history, in Rio Lobo.

Oh I wasn't officially entering into competition, just mentioning that I'd noticed him in that. Another stuntman was Hal Needham, who frequently pops up in TV westerns of the late '50s and early '60s in small acting roles -- presumably b/c hiring Needham meant he could do stunts (fight scenes, dying and falling off the roof, etc...) himself, giving directors more interesting shots. There's a late Have Gun Will Travel where Needham has a fairly large role, with third or fourth billing. A similar career arc to Richard Farnsworth: Wilford Brimley, who worked as a blacksmith on westerns (on westerns, not in them -- he serviced horses on the set and in stables) before becoming a stuntman and eventually an actor.

Farnsworth is clearly recognizable as a manhunter in Papillon (1973).

Anyone mentioned Montgomery Clift? His 1st film (2nd released) was Red River.

Steve McQueen makes his feature film debut as an extra in Girl on the Run (1953):

IMHO The Egyptian generally works as a film, the exception of course being bland Edmund Purdom in the title role, which he got after Brando dropped out. Why didn't Fox cast their contractee Richard Burton? (And why did Brando think doing Desiree was preferable to this?). However IMHO The Silver Chalice is pretty much on the camp level (entertainingly so in the case of Palance) aside from the sets, and I'm sure Jack Warner only approved those when he realized how much cheaper they'd be than building full sets. And speaking of The Silver Chalice, has anyone ever actually seen the ad Newman supposedly took out (in Variety in 1968) apologizing for the film? I've never seen it any book and can't find it online.

Really? How about that.

Billy Wilder and actor friend enjoy a smoke

Are you trying to convince people to sign the petition?

David Huddleston The LA Times may think of him as Lebowski, but he'll always be Olson Johnson to me. "Now who can argue with that? Not only was it authentic frontier gibberish..." "We fought rustlers, fought Indians, Fought Dix -- you remember when Richard Dix tried to take over the town?" http://www.latimes.com/local/obituaries/la-me-david-huddleston-20160804-snap-story.html

Wow. A simple request to keep politics off the board and you not only go immediately to ad hominem insults, but put me on Ignore. If you're really that triggered I hope you can find a safe space where there are no microaggressions at all.

Please take politics to the OT board and keep it there

Photobucket stinks. Use Imgur or Tinypic

Maybe they didn't remember

Slip Mahoney stole it

Fathers & Sons

Completely by accident. I was watching a YT video on MGM logos when that "approved by the KSBofR" sunflower showed up in it for some reason. What stuck in my mind was that bit at the bottom: "Kansas grows the best wheat in the world". I googled "KSBofR" and found that web site.
