Clark Gable

克拉克·盖博

电影史学家权威性的论断是,默片时代的卓别林、有声时代的盖博同为影坛双雄,加上英国的劳伦斯·奥立弗,皆在电影王国达到了别人无法企及的高度。而盖博更是被公认为影帝中的影帝,“男人中的男人”。

About Gable

关于盖博

William Clark Gable was an American film actor。 In 1999, the American Film Institute named Gable seventh among the greatest male stars of all time。

Gable’s most famous role was Rhett Butler in the 1939 Civil War epic film Gone with the Wind, in which he starred with Vivien Leigh。 His performance earned him his third nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor; he won for It Happened One Night (1934) and was also nominated for Mutiny on the Bounty (1935)。 Later performances were in Run Silent, Run Deep, a submarine war film, and his final film, The Misfits (1961), which paired Gable with Marilyn Monroe, also in her last screen appearance。

During his long film career, Gable appeared opposite some of the most popular actresses of the time。 Joan Crawford, who was his favorite actress to work with, was partnered with Gable in eight films, Myrna Loy was with him seven times, and he was paired with Jean Harlow in six productions。 He also starred with Lana Turner in four features, and with Norma Shearer in three。 Gable was often named the top male star in the mid-30s, and was second only to the top box-office draw of all, Shirley Temple。

克拉克·盖博,衣冠楚楚,风度翩翩,温柔又狂野,是最老牌的好莱坞“万人迷”。1932年,一部《沙漠之光》使他得以跻身十位最叫座的明星之列,此后,《一夜风流》、《乱世佳人》更让他在电影界立于不败之地。1938年,他被加冕为电影皇帝。克拉克·盖博是好莱坞的神话人物,在他身上集中体现了美国式的魅力和风采。他的最后一部影片是《野马和女人》,拍完后不久他就去世了。盖博的一生正如他自己所描述的:“他很幸运,这点他知道。”

About Peck

关于派克

One of 20th Century Fox’s most popular film stars from the 1940s to the 1960s, Peck continued to play important roles well into the 1980s。 His notable performances include that of Atticus Finch in the 1962 film To Kill a Mockingbird, for which he won his Academy Award。

President Lyndon Johnson honored Peck with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1969 for his lifetime humanitarian efforts。 In 1999, the American Film Institute named Peck among the Greatest Male Stars of All Time, ranking at 12。

Peck was born Eldred Gregory Peck in San Diego, California’s seaside community of La Jolla, the son of Missouri-born Bernice Mae “Bunny” (née Ayres) and Gregory Pearl Peck, who was a chemist and pharmacist。 Peck’s father was of English (paternal) and Irish (maternal) heritage, and his mother was of Scots (paternal) and English (maternal) ancestry。 Peck’s father was a Catholic and his mother converted upon marrying his father。 Peck’s Irish-born paternal grandmother, Catherine Ashe, was related to Thomas Ashe, who took part in the Easter Rising fewer than three weeks after Peck’s birth and died while on hunger strike in 1917。 Peck’s parents divorced by the time he was six years old and he spent the next few years being raised by his maternal grandmother。

After graduating from Berkeley with a BA degree in English, Peck dropped the name “Eldred” and headed to New York City to study at the Neighborhood Playhouse with the legendary acting teacher Sanford Meisner。 He was often broke and sometimes slept in Central Park。[citation needed] He worked at the 1939 World’s Fair and as a tour guide for NBC’s television broadcasting。

His stage career started in 1941 when he played the secretary in a Katharine Cornell production of George Bernard Shaw’s play The Doctor’s Dilemma。 Unfortunately, the play opened in San Francisco just one week before the attack on Pearl Harbor。 He made his Broadway debut as the lead in Emlyn Williams’ The Morning Star in 1942。 His second Broadway performance that year was in The Willow and I with Edward Pawley。 Peck’s acting abilities were in high demand during World War II, since he was exempt from military service owing to a back injury suffered while receiving dance and movement lessons from Martha Graham as part of his acting training。 Twentieth Century Fox claimed he had injured his back while rowing at university, but in Peck’s words, “In Hollywood, they didn’t think a dance class was macho enough, I guess。 I’ve been trying to straighten out that story for years。”
