Golden & Gorgeous: Hollywood’s Hunkiest Stars

By Robert Edelstein ReMIND Magazine For nearly two minutes, all we hear about — in TV news reports in the U.S., Italy and England — is that the world’s most eligible bachelor, the handsome Nickie Ferrante, is finally getting hitched, to a beautiful, wealthy heiress. It is the beginning of the 1957 romance An Affair to Remember. As we finally see Ferrante walk suavely down the gangway of a cruise ship in his tuxedo, even before we see his face, we can tell by that step, that voice and that style who it will be: film legend Cary Grant. How many men in the movies could ever live up to so vaunted a reputation?

Say this for Grant, and for all the other classic Hollywood hunks you will see celebrated in this issue of ReMIND: They knew how to make an entrance, whether they were playing gruff or gritty, sensual or sentimental.

Like John Wayne as the crusty but principled U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn, herding a wagon full of outlaws into the local jail in True Grit. Like Sean Connery, lighting a cigarette with casual elegance in Dr. No, delivering one of the most famous lines in movie history: “Bond —

Rock Hudson: © 1960 Universal Pictures Company, Inc. James Bond.”

Along with those signature entrances, the Hollywood hunks all share another winning

quality — staying power.

Once they hit the screen, we never want them to leave.

These are the men

who have kept film fans riveted for decades. And in a sense, they were never hotter than in the 1950s and ‘60s. It was a

golden age of the movies when elegance and romance still had its postwar place, but the antihero emerged with a vengeance as Camelot begat Vietnam, and life onscreen and off saw both new freedoms and dark consequences.

That’s when the movies needed stars (and characters) with rugged individuality to keep up with the times and to captivate the public, men who stuck by their code — no matter how bad things got — and turned honor into an art form.

Those are the stars you’ll see in these pages, with careers and roles that spanned and defined the times.

It’s Gregory Peck, standing out as country lawyer Atticus Finch, fighting for the rights of the oppressed in To Kill a Mockingbird. It’s the laconic, poncho-wearing nameless man with a gun Clint Eastwood played in the three spaghetti Westerns that, ironically enough, made his name.

And if you wanted a little bromantic chemistry, you got it from Robert Redford and Paul Newman, riding the range and cracking wise in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. You’ll get a taste of Spencer Tracy’s rough wisdom — and you’ll like it. And a See HUNKS — Page 6

Is Homeland setting a new record?

Question: I’m glad Homeland is finally returning. But is 22 months between seasons a record? —Oliver Matt Roush: This could be the longest hiatus for a continuing series. Game of Thrones comes close, with a long lapse between the penultimate season (which ended Aug., 2017) and final season (which premiered April, 2019). Homeland’s is even longer, having wrapped its sixth season on April, 2018 and not scheduled to return until Feb., 2020. This is an insanely long wait for Homeland’s final chapter. (Although Better Call Saul is getting up there. It wrapped its fourth season in October 2018 and still hasn’t announced a start date for Season 5.) At this point, I will need a refresher when these shows return.

Question: With all the streaming options available now, why can’t networks drop a couple of episodes to give us closure? I liked Sunnyside all right . I wish they could have at least let me know if their friend got a chance at citizenship. —Michelle Matt Roush: The good news for Sunnyside is that the series will produce 11 episodes—only four aired on NBC—and it’s possible there will be some sort of closure by the time production wraps. Fans can find the unaired episodes as they roll out on the NBC app, the network website and Hulu.

Creme de la Weird Doctors at Westmead Hospital in Sydney, Australia, documented a case in the British Medical Journal’s Case Reports that has at least one nose out of joint.

A 48-year-old former prison inmate had been suffering from sinus infections, nasal congestion and headaches for years, United Press International reported. Doctors treating the man performed a CT scan and discovered a rhinolith — a stone made of calcium — in his nasal cavity, which, when removed, was found to have formed around a small balloon with cannabis inside. The patient then recalled that when he was in prison about 18 years earlier, his girlfriend had smuggled in the balloon during a visit, and he had inserted it in his nose to hide it. But he pushed it too far in and assumed he had swallowed it. The unnamed man is surely breathing easier these days.

His Patriotic Duty

Astronaut and Neshannock Township, Pennsylvaresident Andrew nia, Morgan, who is currently aboard the International Space Station, cast his absentee ballot this Election Day from his perch 250 miles above the planet, the New Castle News reported.

Ed Allison, Lawrence County’s director of voter services, received Morgan’s application for an absentee ballot and went the extra mile for the spaceman, coordinating with IT for a fillable, secure PDF file that Morgan could use to register his selections. “Astro-

naut Morgan got the ballot, voted it and sent it back,” Allison said. “No problem at all. In the 11 years I have been here, it is certainly unique.”

Bright Idea

Brice Kendell Williams, 32, was hoping to avoid getting a DWI early on Nov. 3, CNN reported, so rather than driving his car from one bar to another in Houma, Louisiana, Williams stole a motorized shopping cart from Walmart and toddled more than a half-mile to his destination, according to authorities. He carefully parked the scooter between two cars in the lot and went inside, where officers from the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff’s Office found him and arrested him for felony unauthorized use of a moveable. Williams’ bond was set at $2,500.

Rules We Didn’t Know We Needed

North Carolina’s Madison County Public Library system has had a loosely enforced rule against bringing pets into its branches. But on Oct. 8, Interim Director Peggy Goforth appeared before the county’s board of commissioners to request a new policy that tightly restricts animals to only service dogs. Goforth felt she had to advocate for stricter rules after a man brought a bag full of snakes into the library, reported the Citizen Times. “He said, ‘My pets are harmless. Here, let me show you,’” Goforth said.

“And he poured them out on the front desk. They just everywhere.” wriggled When told pets weren’t allowed in the library, “He

was really nice about it. He just bagged up all the snakes and left,” she added. She said another man brought in an ant farm and took the top off to feed them, then forgot to put it back on. “The ants got everywhere.” The library’s new policy excludes all animal species except dogs that are trained to help a person with a disability.

Ironic

— A passenger on New York’s MTA train system noticed a couple of suspicious packages at the MetroNorth New Rochelle station on the afternoon of Oct. 28 and did what any conscientious rider would do: alerted authorities, using the new Help Point intercom system in the station. It turned out the boxes contained more of the MTA’s Help Point devices — they just hadn’t been installed yet. The alert only briefly shut down the station, WNBC reported, as police quickly removed the boxes.

— In Crystal City, Missouri, police are on the lookout for a man who broke into a vending machine at the Twin City Coin Laundry on Oct. 22, pocketing about $600 in change. KSDK reported that he ought to be easy to find: He committed his crime in full view of security cameras, and he was wearing a T-shirt with the motto, “It’s not a crime un-

Talk about bringing down the room. Late on Nov. 2 in Hattingen, Germany, about 300 patrons of a swingers’ club were interrupted mid-party when carbon monoxide alarms sounded and several began to feel unwell. Firefighters escorted the swingers, many clad only in bathrobes, to safety, with about 10 people requiring treatment, reported the Associated Press.

However, firefighters could not detect any dangerous level of carbon monoxide once they arrived on the scene.

a doctor about the notes, which he denied having authorized. Her bond was set at $15,000.

— Workers at a branch of Pinnacle Bank in Lincoln, Nebraska, were stymied on Oct. 28 when a man arrived hoping to open a checking account with a $1 million bill, the Lincoln Journal Star reported. Bank employees argued with him that it couldn’t possibly be real (the largest denomination bill ever minted was for $100,000), and eventually he left, with his bill but without an account. Lincoln police are hoping to identify him from surveillance video so they can check on his welfare.

— Belinda Gail Fondren, 52, of Evans, Louisiana, was charged with filing or maintaining false public records on Oct. 23 after it was discovered that she was writing fake doctor’s notes for high school students so they could get out of class. Fondren, who worked at a medical clinic, charged $20 for each excuse, Vernon Parish Sheriff Sam Craft told WTAP. He also said it was common knowledge among students that the excuses were for sale. Two students obtained excuses on 14 occasions, he said. Fondren’s fraud came to light when someone from the Vernon Parish School Board called

When Coco the shiba inu was hit by a car on Oct. 28 in Schenectady, New York, the driver stopped and noticed some damage to her car, but couldn’t see what she had hit, so she drove on.

About an hour later, Rotterdam Police Lieutenant Jeffrey Collins told WNYT, the driver stopped again when she heard noises. This time, she saw Coco, who was lodged in the car’s bumper.

Weird Weather

— CNN reported on Nov. 6 that thousands of smooth, egg-shaped ice balls have accumulated on a long stretch of beach in Hailuoto, Finland, on the Baltic Sea. The icy balls form when turbulent water near the shore breaks up a layer of slushy ice. The ice sticks together, and as waves crash the shore, they spin the clumps of ice, smoothing them into balls. Sirpa Tero, a visitor to the beach, told CNN she’s seen the phenomenon before, but never covering so much area.

— Residents of Kansas City were puzzled by a foul smell in the air, similar to funky feet or manure, on the evening of Nov. 6, according to KSHB. Meteorologists at the National Weather Service came to the rescue with an explanation: A cold front that moved into the area from the north included a shallow mixing layer that had trapped the odors in Minnesota and Iowa. As they put it: “Strong winds ... transported in an ‘agriculture’ smell from farms north of here.”

Minot (N.D.) Daily News, TRADING POST, November 19, 2019 3

BY TERRY AND KIM KOVEL A tin toy and its original illustrated box made in 1911 sold recently at a Bertoia toy auction in New Jersey for $12,000. The price was more than twice the low estimate.

The clockwork toy is a boy riding a horse while carrying a copy of the now famous painting of Mona Lisa. Why was the 1507 painting by Leonardo da Vinci shown in a 20th-century toy? The Mona Lisa painting was stolen from the Louvre Museum in Paris in August 1911.

Three men cut the painting out of its frame and case, hid it in a blanket and left the city on a train. No one noticed for 28 hours. The newspaper publicity about the theft made the painting famous, and the empty space in the museum became a popular spot to visit. The painting was hidden for over two years, then the thieves tried to sell it to an art dealer who reported it to the police. The thieves were caught and eventually sent to prison. The painting is now in its own viewing area at the Louvre and is its most popular work of art. The auction mentioned the interesting history of the toy because the box said it was the “L’Intrepide Jockey” (Brave Jockey).

Q. I have an oval pressed glass platter that has been passed down in my family. It has a scalloped pattern on the edge and handles on the ends.

In the center is a bust of George Washington with the words “First in War, First in Peace, First in the hearts of his countrymen” surrounding the figure. I was told at one time that it was a valuable collector’s item. What is it worth?

A. This is a bread plate made by Gillinder & Sons to commemorate America’s cen-

tennial in 1876. The company set up a factory on the grounds of the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, where it made and sold glass novelties. The words on the plate are from the eulogy written by Henry Lee after Washington died in 1799. The U.S. Congress commissioned Lee, a major general in the Continental Army and governor of Virginia, to write the eulogy, which was read in Congress.

Lee was a friend of Washington’s and the father of Confederate general Robert E. Lee. Gillinder started making molded and cut flint glass in 1861. Pressed glass was made beginning in 1863. The company moved to Port Jervis, New York, in 1912. The business continued under various names and owners, and it is now called Gillinder Glass.

The company has made new pieces from old molds. Other companies have also made reproductions of pressed glass patterns. Plates like this sell for $20-$25.

Q. I have a set of dishes I’d like to know more about. The mark on the back has a banner that says “Homestead” over a twig with acorns on it.

Below that it says, “Flo Blue, Reg. U.S. Pat. Off., England.”

How old are the dishes?

A. Flow blue ceramics, with cobalt blue designs printed on a white body, were made in England and other countries from about 1830 to 1900, but the dishes weren’t marked “Flow Blue.” That’s a modern term used to describe the flowy or blurred design. A flow blue pattern called Homestead was made by J. & G. Meakin, a pottery in Hanley, England, that started in 1859. Pieces are marked with the pattern name and a crown over a circle, the words “Hanley, England” inside the circle and “J. & G. Meakin” below it.

Meakin became part of the Wedgwood Group in 1970

and production ended by 2000. Reproductions and fakes of antique flow blue patterns have been made. Homestead pattern dishes marked “Flo Blue, Reg. U.S. Pat. Off., England” are not the old historic pattern by Meakin. The “Flo Blu” trademark was registered in 1975 by Fred & Dottie’s Antiques in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania. It was used on sets of dinnerware and other items. The company sold antiques and reproductions wholesale and went out of business in 2014.

Q. Do you know anything about a Captain’s type wood chair with the name “Nichols & Stov, Co. Gardner, Mass” on the bottom?

A. Some of the letters are worn away. The manufacturer’s name is Nichols & Stone, a company that started as Nichols Brothers Chair Manufactory in Westminster, Massachusetts, in 1857. It moved to Gardner about 1900 and the company name became Nichols & Stone in 1907. The company specialized in making Boston rockers and Windsor chairs. In 1968, production expanded to include cabinets, dining room tables and occasional furniture. New styles and finishes were added by 1980.

Nichols & Stone became a division of L. & J.G. Stickley of Manlius, New York, in 2008.

Q. I have a vast record collection dating back to the early 1900s, mostly 33 1/3 and 78. They are still in their original album covers. I need to sell them. How can I find a collector or broker to assist me?

A. The first vinyl 78 records were made in 1901, and the first 33 1/3 records were produced in 1948. Vinyl records are popular again, new ones are being made and there are collectors who want old records by well-known

artists. Collectors usually specialize in one type of music, like blues, country, jazz, rock ‘n’ roll or soul, or look for records by certain artists. The Beatles and Elvis are the most popular. Price depends on the popularity of the musician, rarity of the album and condition. Some albums are collected for their cover art.

Stores that sell used records also buy them. Some used bookstores also have a section of old records. You or a family member can use the internet to check prices on the albums before selling them. It takes time to research each album, but you don’t want to sell an old album for $1 and discover later it’s worth much more.

YWCA Minot Resident Manager Liz Larsen is shown in the YWCA shelter laundry room assessing the damage last week.

Community answers YWCA Minot’s call for help

It started with a water bill for $2,000 for YWCA Minot. Executive Director Meghan Von Behren immediately knew there was something very wrong with the shelter. They had sewage problems before but they thought they had them solved. After looks from the city and a plumber, the leak was not found.

“Last Tuesday (Nov. 5), it found us,” Von Behren said. “It flooded up here on the main floor, came into the hallway. It came into our conference room and the ADA accessible bathroom, and downstairs it was raining.”

Water was pouring in the YWCA downstairs shelter laundry room and bathroom. The staff quickly jumped to clean up the water infiltrating their building. The water coming in was on its way to the sewer, so there were concerns of bacteria and mold for the shelter. On Wednesday, Nov. 6, a post was made to the YWCA Facebook page, explaining the situation and calling on the community for help.

“A contractor called us, Jon Grundstrom, and said that he’s willing to donate his time and kind of help us fix it up,” Von Behren explained. “The same day, SERVPRO came to our door and said, ‘How can we help?’”

At first, Von Behren was concerned about one wall and figured that would need to come down and be replaced. After inspection from Grundstrom and SERVPRO, the YWCA needs two walls replaced, flooring ripped up in the laundry room and flooring dried in the bathroom. If the bathroom flooring cannot be dried, it will also need to be ripped up and replaced.

“When they were going through all of this, I was freaking out,” Von Behren said. “We’re a nonprofit. We don’t have these giant, large budgets. It was something that, on top of this $2,000 water bill, we didn’t know if we could solve.”

The shelter has provided 4,000 nights of shelter for women and children in the Minot area so far this year. Von Behren and the YWCA staff were concerned they weren’t going to be able to make the necessary fixes to continue to provide a safe drug-free, violence-free facility.

“Liz and I, our resident manager, were sitting in here and I got a phone call from Ryan (Conklin) with SERVPRO and he said that he was going to donate all of his materials, labor and efforts for free,” Von Behren said. “Then Jon called me and said he was going to do the same thing.”

In addition to the help from Grundstrom and Conklin, the shelter has received over $2,300 from its post on Facebook asking for help. Community members have also volunteered at the shelter, helping them clean, rearrange and take stock of their donated items and calculate what they need.

SERVPRO started work at the shelter Monday and estimated their demolition and clean up will take two days. Grundstrom will then get to work on construction and rebuilding at the shelter. Von Behren estimated the shelter would be back to normal order in about two weeks.

“I just really want to thank the community, not only the construction crews that came in here but the community as a whole,” she said. “On Facebook, the responses were amazing.

The day after that all happened, we had probably 15 people come in here and volunteer.”

To learn more about how to help, visit the YWCA on Facebook @YWCAMinotND or contact the shelter at 838-1812 or ywcaminoted@gmail.com.

State Insurance Commissioner Jon Godfread stands tall in the State Capitol.

ND boasts World’s Tallest Politician: Insurance commissioner listed in Guinness records

BISMARCK – North Dakota can officially lay claim to having the world’s tallest politician in its state government.

N.D. Insurance Commissioner Jon Godfread last Tuesday announced that he has been named World’s Tallest Politician (male) by Guinness World Records. Godfread’s official height is 6 feet, 10 inches, as verified in Bismarck on Oct. 4.

Godfread, 37, said he applied for the record after friends called his attention to the Guinness category because he thought it would bring attention to the Insurance Department, whose administrative functions don’t tend to garner a lot of public spotlight.

“This was a fun opportunity to bring some good news back to North Dakota, and of course, it’s an honor to be recognized as a world record holder,” Godfread said in releasing the news. “This is also a great opportunity to highlight the work we do at the North Dakota Insurance Department and remind consumers that we are a consumer protection agency serving the people of North Dakota. There are no dumb questions when it comes to insurance, even if it’s about my height. We welcome the opportunity to highlight the work we do and the work of my colleagues across the

country.”

People often don’t think about insurance until a disaster strikes, he said. He wants North Dakotans to know they can call his office if they have a question or concern about their insurance policies.

“It’s a fun opportunity to highlight again what we are doing in the department but it’s also fun to highlight what’s going on in North Dakota. We are a small state that does a lot of big things,” he said.

To apply for consideration for the record, Godfread visited his family physician’s office to be measured on three separate occasions throughout the day on Oct. 4. He was required to be measured in the morning, around noon and in the evening. Each time, Godfread was measured both standing and lying down. The process was documented with video and photographs to meet requirements of Guinness World Records.

The record for World’s Tallest Politician (male) was previously held by Brooklyn, New York, city councilman Robert Cornegy Jr., who also measures 6 feet, 10 inches.

However, in the more exacting measurement of centimeters, Godfread’s height of 210.767 centimeters overtook Cornegy’s 209.6 centimeters. Godfread said his measurement in centimeters actually converts to just under 6 feet, 11 inches. Cornegy had been certified last March, when he was 53 years old.

Cornegy played college basketball at St. John’s University during the 1984-85 season when the team reached the Final Four. Godfread also played college basketball but at Northern Iowa University from 2001-05, reaching the NCAA tournament in both 2004 and 2005.

“Given that we were once both college athletes, I’d be happy to play a little one on one with Councilman Cornegy if it means celebrating how unique we all are,” Godfread said in a news release. “Although, with winter beginning to set in in North Dakota, I’d be happy to give the councilman the homecourt advantage.”

Godfread, who grew up in Grand Forks, was elected insurance commissioner in November 2016. He said he considers his height an advantage in politics.

“The advantages are you stand out,” he said, adding that the potential disadvantage is he’s “not able to hide.”

Because height is self reported, there is a possibility of a taller politician than Godfread somewhere in the world. At the time of Cornegy’s certification, some commentators had stated Croatian Parliament member Peda Grbin might be taller. Grbin has been listed as 6 feet, 11 inches, although that’s not official according to Guinness standards.

North Dakota’s tallest native son wasn’t a politician. Clifford Thompson, who claimed to be 8 feet, 7 inches, was born in Rugby on Oct. 18, 1904. He moved to Wisconsin at age 7 with his family. He appeared in many Hollywood films.

A police impound notice placed on the windshield of a vehicle contains the message that the vehicle will be towed away within a few days. Vehicles parked on City of Minot streets must be moved every 24 hours or be subject to impoundment.

notice of intent to tow. But vehicles left unattended on city streets for 24 hours or more are subject to being tagged by Minot Police for removal.

At this time of year, when winter snowfall could occur at anytime, there is added importance to keeping city streets as clear of unattended vehicles as possible.

“Obviously at this time of year we are concerned about snow removal,” said Dale Plessas, Minot Police Department.

“We never know what’s coming and we need to keep on top of that.”

City ordinance allows for removal and impoundment of vehicles without notice if the vehicle “substantially and seriously” interferes with street cleaning or snow removal, such as what has occurred during past snowstorms when stuck or abandoned vehicles became obstacles for snow removal equipment.

Most times though, police will place a “tow tag” on a vehicle that allows ample time for a vehicle’s owner to comply with moving the vehicle.

“It gives owners a set amount of time to get their vehicle moved,” said Plessas. “At some times of the year those vehicles can be a big problem, not only in keeping roads open but they are a nuisance if left for an extended period of time.”

Once the date for removal stated on the tow tag has passed, the city can have the vehicle towed and impounded at any time without the consent of the owner. Having the city take such action may not only be a huge inconvenience for a vehicle owner, it can also be rough on the pocketbook.

“The city can assess the cost of the tow, a $10 administration fee and $25 per day in the impound lot,” said Plessas.

Impending impoundment: Keeping “It gets expensive real quick.” city streets clear The rules guiding impounding of vehicles can be found in It’s a tag no vehicle owner wants to see – a bright orange the Minot Code of Ordinances, Sec. 20-72 and Sec. 20-74.

‘Andromeda Evolution’ is sequal to Michael Crichton book (AP) —To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the publication of Michael Crichton's epic novel, "The Andromeda Strain," the author's estate commissioned Daniel H. Wilson to craft a sequel, "The Andromeda Evolution."

After the events of 50 years earlier, protocols were put in place to watch and prepare for the next time the microbe made an appearance. With the original team that battled the first visit of Andromeda having passed away, scientists aren't sure what to expect when the microbe finally does reappear, and it's doubtful that it will come back.

When a drone uncovers a strange anomaly in the Brazilian jungle, Project Wildfire is reactivated. It appears the virus has come back, and it's spreading rapidly. A small team consisting of experts,

"The Andromeda Evolution," Harper, by Daniel H. Wilson

military personnel and the son of one of the original scientists proceeds to uncover the truth and stop the threat. Unfortunately, the clock is ticking rapidly, and if they don't neutralize it in five days, it may be the end of the world.

Wilson has crafted many books about problematic is-

sues surrounding robotics and technology, so it's a bit strange that he is writing about the world of micro-organisms and viruses. But his scientific skills and background play perfectly into the narrative. He's able to convey complex scenarios and situations and make them understandable to the non-scientist, something the late Crichton had a gift for as well.

Wilson's stellar cast of characters makes the story more than just a series of events but a tale that carries weight.

The structure of the novel reads as if the reader has been granted access to a top-secret file that provides an overview of the incident, which follows the exact layout of Crichton's classic novel. Wilson invokes the best of that story, and updates everything with terrific flair.

• When you have the consistency you want, remove from heat, then stir in either a single essential oil or a combination for a total of 48 to 96 drops (1 to 2 percent concentration). • Quickly pour into shallow glass or metal jars for salves; pour into small jars or tubes for lip balm. • Allow to cool completely before putting on the lids. • Keep the lid on when the salve or lip balm is not in use so that essential oils do not evaporate. Always label herbal salves and lip balms.

Continued from Page 1

splash of the bubbly humor Rock Hudson offered in bedroom comedies. And then there’s Grant once again, who played it all — ad man, action star and monument-climbing romantic hero — in North by Northwest.

Today, the works of these actors live on thanks to the availability of DVDs, movie marathons on TV and the ease at which the internet can present clips of legendary performances. And new generations of fans are discovering these actors and their legacies, thanks to the streaming services that fill their libraries with content from the cinematic golden age.

Enjoy the view in these pages of the hunkiest of Hollywood men, who caught our attention from the start and kept it long after the picture faded out.

Sean Connery In 1962’s Dr. No, sexy Scot Sean Connery — with his effortlessly cool acting, endearing accent and ruggedly athletic physique honed during his days as a bodybuilder — exploded into Hollywood hunk history as the first big-screen James Bond. Despite five other actors having portrayed the secret agent, the 89year-old Connery still remains the definitive 007 for a lot of people who recall seeing the original films in theaters and for those who discovered them in later decades.

Thanks largely to the charismatic Connery being the embodiment of Bond in the minds of many, the actor has retained his attractiveness to fans no matter his age.

He graced the cover of People’s Sexiest Man Alive issue in 1989, at age 59, and 10 years later, an internet poll named him Sexiest Man of the Century.

Montgomery Clift Montgomery Clift was known as one of the most handsome men to ever grace the silver screen, and before he was cast as dark and brooding characters in films like Red River (1948) and The Heiress (1949), he made a name for himself on Broadway in works by Cole Porter, Tennessee Williams and Thornton Wilder. The method actor was one of the first to study in the Actors Studio with Lee Strasberg and Elia Kazan, and in preparation for his role as a murderous social climber in the film A Place in the Sun (1951), he even spent a night in a prison. Talk about committed to his craft.

Charlton Heston Whether it’s “Let my people go!” or “Take your stinking paws off me, you damn dirty ape!,” Charlton Heston was the go-to guy for gravitas. His commanding presence filled epics like The Ten Commandments (1956), BenHur (1959) and El Cid (1961), and was turned upside down in apocalyptic sci-fi flicks like Planet of the Apes (1968) and The Omega Man (1971).

At age 47, he turned his attention to his other passion — racecar driving, where he won four amateur championships. His devotion to his wife of 50 years, Joanne Woodward, was commendable, as was his philanthropy. In 1982 he founded Newman’s Own, Inc., and donated all after-tax profits and royalties to charities.
