Steve Cochran Movies

Want to know the best Steve Cochran movies?  How about the worst Steve Cochran movies?  Curious about Steve Cochran box office grosses or which Steve Cochran movie picked up the most Oscar® nominations? Need to know which Steve Cochran movie got the best reviews from critics and audiences and which got the worst reviews? Well, you have come to the right place…. because we have all of that information and much more.

Steve Cochran (1917-1965) was an American character actor.  Cochrane often played the bad guy in movies.  To me, he always looked like a pissed off Cary Grant.  His IMDb page shows 66 acting credits from 1945 to 1965. This page will rank Steve Cochran movies from Best to Worst in six different sortable columns of information. To do well in the rankings, a movie needed to do well at the box office, be liked by both critics and audiences and earn some award recognition.
