  1. 3/PARKINSON [Clearly fishing for the name of the likes of Olivier to be uttered back in awe] “Orson you are held up as one of Hollywood’s greatest all-round geniuses and your friend Joseph Cotton even called you “The Boy Wonder”. Who in your opinion though is the greatest ACTOR you’ve ever seen?

    WELLES [without hesitation] “Oh off the top of my head a guy called Pedro.”

    SIR MIKE [in clear disbelief]: “Pedro! What’s his surname?”

    WELLES: I don’t know. He never told me.”

    PARKY: “But I’ve never heard of him.”

    ORSON: “You wouldn’t have. He was a Mexican peasant who worked in the fields and I hired him for a walk-on part in a crowd scene. He was so good that I offered him a contract but he turned me down as he wasn’t interested in acting and just wanted to get back to his beloved fields. I never saw him again – but since you have asked I think he is the greatest ever.”

    PARKY -sits in gobsmacked silence.

    [I think I have told that story before within one context or another on this site and have since waited in vain for for WH to track down Pedro to give him his Cogerson page.]

  2. Sir Michael Parkinson [aka “Parky”] was for nearly 30 years one of Britain’s very top talk-show hosts and he managed to sign up as guests the very greatest of entertainment celebrities. He was known for excessive grovelling to the Legends and especially the British ones. 3 of the interviews that he gave will always stick in my mind.

    1/Sir Mike [Sir Michael or Sir Maurice always sounds right doesn’t it?] was interviewing Richard Burton and telling Richard about how great he and other British actors were when Richard [who could be outspoken and contrary at times] interrupted Parkinson’s gushing to say “We’re OK but I think that there are Americans like Brando and my Elizabeth who are even better than we Brits. At least they’re greater movie stars.” Sir Mike was gobsmacked but Richard wouldn’t let him off the hook and pressed him into saying that Yanks like Brando and Taylor DID come into the reckoning.

    2/Nothing more illustrates Sir Michael’s sycophancy than his interview with Sir Alec Guinness. “Sir Alec you are revered as a great actor. At what point did you realize you were a genius? Did you always know it from even as a child?” Guinness [a relatively modest and reserved actor] visibly winched.

  3. Added Steve’s Jennifer Garner YouTube video to this page. My thoughts on the video and her career…found on his channel…are listed below.

    “I have seen 24 of the 25 movies listed. My only miss is #17 Miracles From Heaven. I see that you did not list Catch Me If You Can…..she only has a small part…but it about the same as Elizabeth Banks part and only a little smaller than Amy Adams’ part. Favorites would include 13 Going on 30, Juno (though I have never re-watched it), Daredevil and The Invention of Lying. She has a solid career, but I suspect her days as a leading actress have passed. Good job.”

    1. Hi Bruce, if I had included her cameo in Catch Me if you Can it would have been 3rd on my chart. I do sometimes include cameos, for instance Gwyneth Paltrow in Spiderman Homecoming, so as to include all her Marvel roles in one video.

      Your tally 24 out of 25 is amazing, I’ve seen 10. My favorites include – Daredevil, Elektra, Peppermint and Pearl Harbor. All wonderful classics. 🙂

      Thanks for the comment, vote and share, much appreciated.

      1. Hey Steve…I understand….not thinking that was a cameo for her…she got 12th billing in the movie. I like her part in the movie…..it is one of my favorite Garner roles. But variety is the spice of life. Good stuff.

  4. MODERN THESPIANS: AWARDS/NOMINATIONS CREDITED BY IMDB
    Meryl Streep 177 awards/363 noms/grand total 540
    Tom Hanks 89/185/274
    Robert De Niro 63/133/196
    Jack Nicholson 89/101/190
    Al Pacino 51/114/165
    Jennifer Aniston 43/83/126
    Harrison Ford 42/40/82

    Clearly a system gone crazy in my view! How can any thinking Buff take it seriously especially when contrasted with the following?

    CLASSIC ERA THESPIANS
    Laurence Olivier awards 40/noms 37/ grand total 77
    Marlon Brando 32/35/67
    Katharine Hepburn 28/37/65
    Ingrid Bergman 35/17/52
    Bette Davis 27/23/50
    Charles Chaplin 24/9/32
    Spencer Tracy 12/20/32
    Myrna Loy 5/0/5 – None are competitive.

    On the basis of THAT it is difficult for me at least to see what The Work Horse’s problem is about Hanks and as WH is in other respects a very balanced person it surprises me that he does not take the Oscars with a greater pinch of salt.

    Harrison as Indie is not in the same acting class as any of the others in the table yet he has more awards/noms than any of the still-recognised old acting-greats both male and female and his total is more than twice that of either Charlie or Old Cantankerous still recognised by critics and historians as acting “geniuses”. No classic era star comes near crashing the 100-total barrier in the table whilst all but Harrison excessively exceed it.

  5. Consider for example the table in my Part 3 to follow which currently reflects the credits of the thespians concerned on IMDB and taken at face value that table would seem a nonsense. As John McEnroe would have said “C’mon guys – let’s get real!”

    You told me you were annoyed when ET was passed over at the Oscars; and WH says he almost scattered tables and chairs [like Elisha Cook’s Stonewall Torrey in Shane] when the for my money routine Indiana Jones didn’t get an Academy Award. The next time either you and/or The Big Guy feels that one or both of you may have to be put on suicide watch over potential Oscar results it might comfort you to reflect on the following quote that I have just come across from a world-famous sportsman.

    “I do not obsess about passing Roger Federer’s Grand Salm record. If that comes in the normal process of things so be it. But I am already proud of, and contented with, my own achievements. I am not the sort of person who sees another person with a bigger car or larger house than he has and then covets that other person’s possessions.” Rafael Nadal Parera tennis player [currently No 2 in the world].
