Actresses from the old

subjective review of the 10 'stars' of the old cinema. I must admit that in the choice of actresses beauty was important because the style of acting changed over the years and are hard for me to judge. Without a doubt, however, listed here 'stars' have in addition to the outstanding beauty talent and screen charisma. Occupation involving the recruitment of a variety of forms for some it may seem frivolous fun, but many actors and actresses have proved that it is a profession you need, because it allows us, the viewers, to enter the world of people whose actions and words we can learn a lot. Of course, the actors were also important money, especially if you participated in high-budget production, but listed here deserve a solid actress fees (except perhaps for Elizabeth Taylor for her role in Cleopatra got million dollars, and it was not a role worth that amount.)
Alphabetical order.

CLAUDIA CARDINALE

Born in Tunisia, a beautiful Italian woman of international fame. Her debut was very modest - in the role of serving the Arabic-French-Tunisian co-Fri Goha . She played in the films of Italian, French and English. An interesting role in the adventure-robber Cartouche where alongside Jean-Paul Belmondo starred as a person 'outlawed', which, however, it is difficult not to like. Fared very well in westerns, which is the best Once Upon a Time in the Wild West . She played a woman in it, which the music Ennio Morricone comes to America, where he meets a brutal law of the Wild West. She proved that to be an international star does not need to conquer Hollywood - occurred almost exclusively in European films in America, only occasionally at the side of the stars. With her American films in particular deserves mention an interesting western Professionals, where he starred as a married woman who flees with her lover-revolutionary. To play a cameo role in the Princess American comedy Pink Panther does not have to leave their country, because film was shot in Italy. She played the Countess in a very successful film by Jerzy Skolimowski Fri The Adventures of Gerard . His producing credits also challenging roles in films including u Visconti. The director first gave her a small role in the film Rocco and His Brothers , but soon noticed that the actress is designed for major roles. Sophia Loren may be better able to express emotions, but Claudia Cardinale had more charisma, because it did not have to exert yourself too much to arouse sympathy the viewer.

Olivia de Havilland

Tokyo-born actress with big ambitions. There are two periods of her career. The first is the 30th year, when it was the pride of adventure films of Errol Flynn, namely Captain Blood, The Charge of the Light Brigade and Adventures of Robin Hood. Her first role was as ambitious Melanie Hamilton in the famous melodrama Gone with the Wind. In later years, very carefully chose the role, which could not afford because the contract signed with Warner Bros.. did not give her any choice. The case ended in court and the court agreed with an actress. Her perseverance and determination have brought the desired effect. In the years 1946 to 1949 she played four prominent roles, winning two Oscars. She played a courageous role of the mentally ill women in Siedlisko snakes (another title vortex vipers), and such complex and arduous role of twin sisters in a stylish film noir Dark mirror.

AUDREY HEPBURN

There is a sporting rule that at the beginning you should not show all of its assets to the decisive moment all by surprise. But Audrey Hepburn in the first lead role in Roman Holiday , showed that it lies in the enormous potential and has won well-deserved Oscar. Set the bar very high, but it jumped. Even though the second did not get an Oscar already played many great roles that will remain long in the memory of viewers. She firmly attached the to each role. Fared very well in comedic roles, romantic, dramatic. Ideal looked both in costume of the era, like today's creations. She knew that the physical conditions will not let her come off as a credible villain, played a positive role so only the more surprising is the variety of roles. Princess in Roman Holiday , shy daughter of a chauffeur in Sabrina, a charming heroine tołstojowska War and Peace, the persecuted Indian The Unforgiven , dreaming of riches girl in Breakfast at Tiffany's, a woman entangled a spy scandal in the charade . In each of these roles, the actress is credible. But perhaps the best of its role is to form a blind woman, whose own house turns out to be a trap in a tense thriller Wait Until Dark . Surprise was her role opposite Sean Connery in the romantic Return of Robin Hood. More about the actress and her films posted here .

KATHARINE HEPBURN

winner a record number of four-four acting Oscars. Jurors quickly Academy noticed that the actress has outstanding talent - a year after his debut was awarded an Oscar, and then you just proved it has the ability to turn into various forms. Viewers can not appreciate and movies with Katharine Hepburn was not willing viewed. If someone went to the cinema to Predatory baby and Philadelphia story is gone because of Cary Grant, and this is not an actress. Katharine does not attempt to overshadow their screen partners, could work well in a duet. This is evidenced by these two films with Grant, as well as performance opposite Humphrey Bogart in African Queen and numerous appearances with Spencer Tracy'm - deserves special mention for their last joint film Guess Who's Coming to Dinner , in which she starred as her niece Katharine Houghton. The role of the liberal-minded woman, whose beliefs are put to severe test was certainly an interesting experience in the career of an actress. The creators of this film, with Stanley Kramer at the helm, joined the debate on racism - it was in the 60s that is, during the protests against racial segregation. Katharine fared poorly with John Wayne in the western Rooster Cogburn. This is partly the fault of poor plot - nearly 70-year-old woman seeking revenge for the death of his father (this is a continuation True Grit in which the teenager was looking for revenge.) Later, however, have created a successful actress paired with Henry Fonda in "On Golden Pond . Shall distinguish even creation of Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine from the movie The Lion in Winter . Katharine Hepburn is a versatile actress, but it fits the role of women stubborn, independent, self-confident and hit.

GRACE KELLY

Elegant and proud, no doubt, that was ideally suited to the Princess of Monaco, but it was also a great actress and a bit of a shame that the wedding of Prince Rainier ended her short, just 5-year, his acting career. However, these five years was enough to create many memorable creations. Whether you played the wife of the sheriff in the western High Noon or embroiled in mysterious circumstances Alfred Hitchcock heroine detective always riveted the viewer's attention. Credible both as irritating, unfaithful wife anthropologist at Mogambo and utterly devoted wife, a singer in the girl's province, for which she got an Oscar. Of the three Hitchcock films on the first plan put forward in the film M for Murder, in which she played a murder victim as that unexpectedly alone is accused of a crime.

SYLVA KOSCINA

sexy actress perfectly suited to each role, both aristocrat as well as contemporary women looking for social advancement. Designed for the main roles and I find it hard to understand why it is often been drawn into supporting roles, or episodic (eg, Fellini, and spirits Giulietcie cast her in several scenes króciutkich, which was notable for its strange costumes with a big hat on head.) Just like Claudia Cardinale, Sylva Koscina played in the films of Italian, French and English. From Claudia, however, was more courageous in the selection of roles and was the most natural in the roles of comedy, in which, as befits an Italian, was dynamic and lively. Proud of her royal position rather predestined roles arystokratek, but unfortunately, costume films, in which she played were mostly kitschy and not giving a large field of possibilities. Already at the beginning of his career is well presented in a colorful spectacle of adventure based on the novel by Jules Verne Michel Strogoff - Courier tsarist . Was never, however, interesting proposals from good directors and bogged down in the movies did not help the Class B share in the international all-star cast of Battle of the Neretva River . It did not help even that sat opposite Orson Welles in the Byzantine Rollers throne of Rome . In the comedy Il Vigile played herself and sang a song, hit Adriano Celentano Il tuo bacio è come un rock ( Your kiss is like a rock ). It was a cameo role, but very striking - a scene in which she played the best scenes of the film and it is perhaps not the merit of the script, but just the actress. Had an interesting role in British spy comedy exceptionally hot June . More about the actress wrote here.

Marilyn Monroe

Although in the 50s There were many pretty and talented actresses of a similar type of beauty is most remembered for a very Marilyn Monroe. Contributed to this not only by the mysterious death, but also cooperation with distinguished film directors. Marilyn was a natural brunette, and in the late 40th przefarbowała hair, which was unfortunately a negative impact on her career since she was forced grywać głupiutkich blonde roles. But even these roles do not require able to play intelligently and sensitively, without undue exaggeration. After an excellent role in a bus stop actress confirmed her acting class and has proven quite wrong that it had omitted important awards. The problem is not that the Film Academy underestimated her, but that does not appreciate its directors, who gave her an easy role, instead of something more demanding. Marilyn Monroe had a great talent not only comedy, but also dramatic, which could be demonstrated only in two films: Bus and Misfits . The comedy and the two films deserve mention Billy Wilder: The Seven Year Itch and Some Like It Hot .

ROMY SCHNEIDER

We conquered Europe, became popular in his native Austria for his role as the Empress Elizabeth of Bavaria, called Sissi in three funny and sentimental Heimat-films from the 50s Then he wanted to free themselves from the banal role, to adopt the roles so more complicated and controversial. After years of setbacks and failed attempts to build a career in Hollywood found itself in the French cinema. Harbinger of future success was the role in the film Swimming , where she starred with Alain Delon. Motes of life from constantly worked with the director Claude Sautetem. The first major award (Caesar) won for her role in Andrzej Zulawski most important thing is to love . In Visconti Ludwig returned to the form of Elisabeth of Bavaria, but played it differently, more mature, than in Austria's Sissi trilogy.

ELIZABETH TAYLOR

actress was a child and before the age of 30-ki created a series of brilliant roles. not avoid the production of entertainment played such Jewish character in the adventure Ivanhoe, which competed for the man with her sister Olivia de Havilland, Joan Fontaine. Although Joan was prettier than it had to lose this competition. Huge Role in was the prelude to the future, more ambitious created characters. Confirmation of her skills were four Oscar nominations in four years (1957-60) . strong performance in the controversial film Suddenly, Last Summer had to fit in amazement, not only viewers, but probably also partnering her Katharine Hepburn. However, its the best film from that period is an intimate drama about the hypocrisy Cat on a Hot Tin Roof , where she starred opposite Paul Newman. In subsequent years, was more known for her affair with Richard Burton than acting, although it is still very often played in movies. Cleopatra the 1963 is just scenery and costumes, and even such talented and respected actress like Elizabeth Taylor had a problem to stand up to the fore, although after playing a major role. She managed to play yet another outstanding performance in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? next decade were not for her very successful - they came of average films, even if the movie was good it fell into oblivion. Last good roles gave her the Franco Zeffirelli - performance in the title of Shakespeare's comedy The Taming of the Shrew and the role of opera diva in Young Toscanini. for one of the last roles (the Flintstonach ) was nominated for the Golden Raspberries, which was her signal that zabrnęła a blind alley and will not be remembered as well as Audrey Hepburn, who knew when to retreat.

LANA TURNER

With 20 years of a girl she played a gangster in the film Johnny Eager - for this film received an Academy Award Actor Van Heflin, Lana Turner, but it was saved. Great sound one in the roles of cold and intelligent blonde who fall in love with the wrong guys. Her crowning achievement was the role of femme fatale in film noir Postman Always Rings Twice . The style femme fatale was also a creative milady de Winter in Three Musketeers (revised 1948). Unfortunately, to take the stupidest actor's task, which is to pretend that I can sing - in musicals so it was dubbed. Four times at the side of Clark Gable (among others Betrayed ). Feel good in romances such as Peyton Place (the only Oscar nomination), worse in comedies. In the comedy "Bachelor in Paradise was 40 years old and still look beautiful, but as a comedic role was the role played too rigid (except perhaps the dance scene after a few drinks). Played dramatic roles in a no-frills, minimalist, which was overshadowed by other actors, the best example is The Bad and the Beautiful with Kirk Douglas. Although it can not be said to have played badly, but the Oscar was not enough. In Lanie Turner loved the two cast members James Bond, Roger Moore in the period drama Diane and Sean Connery in the drama Another Time, Another Place .
