This, is surely gonna be a question for bruce (and get me a set of books): What star was so type-cast into one character or role that whenever you watch this star the image of that character is inescapable? I believe that without question the most popular answer will be George Reeves, SUPERMAN. (he was trained as a Shakespearian actor, only to find himself getting jabbed by kids at supermarket openings when the kids thought he was indestructible. in fact, isnt there a movie about his death, suicide vs. murder? honorable mentions: Margaret Hamilton, The Wicked Witch Lucille Ball, Lucy Ricardo (which was the subject of my posting last week) Yul Brenner, The KING The Munsters? Shirley Booth as Hazel? Batman? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? who do you believe were the stars that couldn't escape one character? CONVERSELY.........the other side for another poll question.........Who had the most diversity to play any role? Cagney from gangster to Yankee Doodle Dandy, cary, bette................ michael _____ Feeling the pinch at the grocery store?
