Nice choices.Who was the female star in "The Snake Pit"?Damn ,she was beautiful.She might still be alive in Texas.---------Gary Cooper,Wallace Beery,Ethyl Barrymore(and her brother--*the bad banker in It's a wonderful life).Robert Ryan and others whose names elude me.

 

Jimmy Stewart/Bettie Davis

 

Robert Ryan was a really cool actor. He usually played the bad guy, but was a cool dude in real life. :cheers2:

His daughter, Jane, never quite lived up to his reputation. She worked well with Fred Zinnemann on Julia, but was a bit of a lame duck when she stared alongside her father in Golden Pond.
His grandson, Troy also played the part of Billy Ray (as a child) in Golden Pond, but was not credited, we believe at his mothers request.

 

Unfortunately not.
Working in film production, going to the cinema on my rare days off was too much of a bus-mans holiday.

 

Did you enjoy Julia.? It was one of the first films that I worked on. However most of my work was with Fred Zinnemann, post production, on the final edit, grading and sound.
He was quite a character and would not think twice about calling me at 2'am in the morning. It was the day before the Cannes film festival and he was getting in a flap, so I did not mind too much. In this case it was on The Day of the Jackal.
