The Top 100 Movie Stars Countdown
When I think of iconic movie stars I think of this song:
Greta Garbo, and Monroe
Deitrich and DiMaggio
Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean
On the cover of a magazine
Grace Kelly; Harlow, Jean
Picture of a beauty queen
Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire
Ginger Rodgers, dance on air
They had style, they had grace
Rita Hayworth gave good face
Lauren, Katherine, Lana too
Bette Davis, we love you
The thought of a famous songstress in 40 years singing
about Adam Sandler in the same vein makes me smile.

Dan Duryea was my 1 pointer. If you don't know who he is, try watching some classic Film Noir.

Dan was big in his time. He was a great actor.
I guess people can interpret this countdown anyway they want. If we go for ALL time biggest movie stars based on glamour and star power. Then Bette Davis and Clark Gable would win hands down.

Is he a movie STAR though or is he just a great actor? I interpreted this list as being about glamour and star power.
You're allowed to nominate anybody who's ever been in a movie.

Um...
Yeah. So I kind of don't think "glamour" and "star power" were necessarily what the intent was. In any case, I interpreted it as "film actors I most enjoy watching."

And as a side note, SC, it's fine flying through this countdown, but you can at least post a picture for every actor. It's not like it's hard to find one.

Well given who is running the list, at the least it seemed apparent to me that having a list full of Old Hollywood starlets wasn't the intention.

Yeah, that's why I was stunned that Gable came in so low. I TOTALLY misinterpreted the nature of this countdown and I apologise for my earlier comment. It seems I am the only one who interpreted it that way.
