4897153Hollywoods Most Famous Silent Film Actresseshttps://www.gandhi.com.mx/hollywoods-most-famous-silent-film-actresses-9798882366840/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4451231/image.jpg?v=638528791244530000154154MXNCharles River EditorsInStock/Audiolibros/<p>At the end of the 20th century, the American Film Institute compiled a list of the 25 greatest actors and actresses in Hollywood over the past 100 years, but only a select few worked all the way back in the silent era of films, before talkies revolutionized the industry at the end of the 1920s. Among them was Mary Pickford, who was ranked 24th but was arguably the most influential actress when it came to creating the career template for all actresses who followed, from name changes to salary.</p><p>Of all the great movie stars, there may be none more enigmatic than Greta Garbo, who remains internationally famous despite the fact her life and career raise more questions than answers. How did a Swedish actress with very little film acting experience in her native land arrive in the United States and achieve instant stardom? Most actresses had to wait years before they were offered starring roles in major films, yet Garbo was ushered to the front of the line and perched atop the MGM pantheon at a time in which it was the studio par excellence. How was she able to transition from silent films to talkies so fluidly, giving many of her most decorated performances during the 1930s?</p><p>It goes without saying that the most enduring image of Gloria Swanson is the famous shot of her in Sunset Boulevard (1950), head tilted backward, stating, Alright, Mr. DeMille, Im ready for my close up. Indeed, for many, the very mention of Gloria Swanson conjures the name of Norma Desmond, her character in Sunset Boulevard, directed by Billy Wilder. That the shot of Desmond requesting her close-up remains indelibly imprinted in the minds of so many speaks in large part to the power of Sunset Boulevard, one of the most revered films of its times and the most famous film of Gloria Swansons career. By dint of her performance in the film, Swanson has become almost synonymous with Hollywoods silent era.</p>...4641340Hollywoods Most Famous Silent Film Actresses154154https://www.gandhi.com.mx/hollywoods-most-famous-silent-film-actresses-9798882366840/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4451231/image.jpg?v=638528791244530000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro20249798882366840_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9798882366840_<p>At the end of the 20th century, the American Film Institute compiled a list of the 25 greatest actors and actresses in Hollywood over the past 100 years, but only a select few worked all the way back in the silent era of films, before talkies revolutionized the industry at the end of the 1920s.
