Starting the discussion on MOPO is great to test the interest of movie
buffs.
This, is surely gonna be a question for bruce (and get me a set of books):
What star was so type-cast into one character or role that whenever you
watch this star the image of that character is inescapable?
I believe that without question the most popular answer will be George
Reeves, SUPERMAN. (he was trained as a Shakespearian actor, only to find
himself
getting jabbed by kids at supermarket openings when the kids thought he was
indestructible. in fact, isnt there a movie about his death, suicide vs.
murder?
honorable mentions:
Margaret Hamilton, The Wicked Witch
Lucille Ball, Lucy Ricardo (which was the subject of my posting last week)
Yul Brenner, The KING
The Munsters? Shirley Booth as Hazel? Batman? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
who do you believe were the stars that couldn't escape one character?
CONVERSELY.........the other side for another poll question.........Who had
the most diversity to play any role? Cagney from gangster to Yankee Doodle
Dandy, cary, bette................
