Re: Your nominee for best ever cool as ice protag
There's cool and then there's stone faced, two completely different things. I remember Bob Mitchum expressed surprise in an interview when asked about the lasting influence of this iconic noir film, saying "We called 'em 'B' movies."
I thought Bogey's turns at Spade and Marlowe were cooler than Rick but each to their own. Carradine's Bill in the hotly debated Kill Bill is worth a mention in the contemporary stakes. A character doesn't have to appear in a B/W oldie to be cool. -Derek Derek's Web Page - stories, screenplays, novels, insanity. |

Steve McQueen in pretty much everything he did.
Robert Mitchum. Bogart, of course. |

Richard Roundtree as Shaft was cooler than cool.
McQueen in Bullitt was cool. James Dean in Rebel without a cause was cool. Marlon Brando in The Wild One was cool
