Top Movie Stars of the 1930s

Who were the Top Movie Stars of the 1930s statistically?  This page will attempt to answer that question.  Our main source of information was our Ultimate Movie Ranking (UMR) pages that covered movie stars that made movies in the 1930s. So far we have box office grosses on 1,297 movies made between 1930 and 1939.  Granted this is far from all the movies made during that time frame….but it does cover most of the major movie releases in that decade.

We have included four lists of information.  List one looks at the Top 15 stars by adjusted domestic box office.  List two looks at the Top 15 stars by highest average rating per movie according to critics and audiences.   List three looks at the Top 15 Stars by highest average UMR score per movie.  List four shows our entire table of all the stars we looked at while complying these lists.

        Joan Crawford sits in 10th place when looking at the top adjusted worldwide box office leaders of 1930-1939

        *Our worldwide box office grosses are hugely dependent on the studio the star worked for. Those working at RKO, Warner Brothers and MGM have the most worldwide grosses in our database.  Poor Gary Cooper, he spent many years at Paramount so we have very little when it comes to his worldwide grosses.

  1. Saw the debate in the comments. First of all, I LOVE YOUR SITE!!! I just discovered it today! I’m so surprised I’d never seen or even heard of it before. Keep up the good work! I will be referring other movie lovers like myself to your site.

    Now, if I may add my 2 cents to the debate. I love the data you list, however, to determine the “Top Movie Stars” of a particular decade, instead of using the TOTAL box office, wouldn’t it be better to ALSO list the AVERAGE Box Office (Total Box Office divided Number of Movies, with a minimum number of movies for the decade, like maybe 5 because back in the early years many Stars did lots of movies, whereas today it is not uncommon for big Stars to do as few as 1 movies every 2 years.) An example of how looking at the AVERAGE gets different results is to compare Myrna Loy’s 54 movies average, to very popular Stars like Marlene Dietrich, or Greta Garbo who both only did 13 movies. It’s interesting to see how much comparing the Average Box Office, changes the list of the Top Stars.

    Either way, could you please add an “Average Box Office” column to your list?

    Thanks. Keep up the good work. Love your site! : )

  2. I love this site it has great info. But if we place Astaire at #1 and Rogers at #15 in the Top 15 Average UMR (combining box office, reviews and awards) list, something is seriously broken here.

    There are only three explanations I can think of. Either
    A.) these ratings are based on the entire career instead of the decade in question. But that actually would support Rogers being higher since she won awards Astaire never received, including an Academy Award, was a much bigger box office draw for most of her career, had a far greater range of roles, always received high quality reviews, and had a much larger body of work;

    Or

    B.) Fred gets most of the credit for the set of Astaire-Rogers films. This is an idea not found in contemporary reviews, which all praised Fred for his dancing yet had little to say about his singing and even less about his acting, while virtually all reviews raved about Ginger’s endless array of talent (she really was that rarest of phenomenons, a Triple Threat, sing, dance & act at A List levels). He didn’t come close to her at the box office – everything he did 1930-1940 without her, flopped. Head to head, Ginger Rogers outsold Fred Astaire every year 1930-1940.
    She was in all his hits and none of his flops, while she was a powerful draw on her own outside of the Astaire-Rogers musicals. While Fred Astaire was getting labeled Box Office Poison, Ginger Rogers was carrying another B.O.P., awardee – katherine hepburn – to her best box office receipts of the decade in Stage Door;

    Or

    C.) These ratings are hurting Rogers because she made more movies in the 1930s. But if that’s the case, where is Harlow? She made 7 All Time classic movies out of 9 during the 1930s, all smash hits, with great reviews, the best hitting percentage of any lead actor’s body of work in any era. And too, this falls apart because, as stated, Rogers had a whole series of box office hits on her own, while Astaire movies did so poorly without Ginger that movie theater managers publicly said they did not want to lose any more money by showing his movies.

    To me, this is a problem similar to the view of katherine hepburn as the greatest actress of the golden era because she won 4 Academy Awards. Not only was there a very strong debate at the time about who was the greatest actress (Bergman & Garbo both were more highly regarded by many if not most critics), she actually only received a single Academy Award during the Golden Era. She received the other three in 1968, 1969, & 1982 – decades after the Golden Era was dead and buried.

    Much as I love the work on here, that ranking just does not stand up to scrutiny.

    1. Hey Old Movie Fan. Great comment. It was very interesting to read. Of the three options you presented…..Option C is the main reason that Ginger is lower than Fred. Her 30 movies is almost 3 times the amount that Fred made in the 1930s. That quantity really lowered her average score…as some of those 30 movies were not successful movies at all. I am including the 30 movies she made from 1930 to 1939.

      Of the 30 movies, 8 of her movies scored under 50%. Including 3 in the mid 20s or worse. Having almost a third of her movies really hurt the average. But she has some many high scoring movies (13 over 90) that her overall average is still pretty good. Fred benefited from only having 11 movies for the entire decade…with most of those being with Ginger. In our book…Top 50 Stars Statistically Speakling….both Fred and Ginger did well…first of all, both made the book…with Ginger topping Fred in those rankings…she is 26th and he is 32nd. I think that goes with many of the great points in your comment.

      Ultimately…you can sort the table however you like….and you will get lots of different rankings…and ultimately it is up to the reader to pick the rankings that like the most. Great feedback….it is greatly appreciated.

    1. Hey Elias….just gave this page a major update….Laurel & Hardy are now in the rankings. They are in 87th place for the decade when looking at box office grosses….but when looking at average review % they have a spot in the Top 15.

      FYI….They were not originally in the table, because I had not yet written a page on them when I first put this 1930-1930 page together. Added bonus…about 50 more thespians are now on the page. Good feedback.
