Who is the King of the Golden Age of Hollywood? (July 11-17/14)

We found our queen, now who is the king? You will notice someone missing from the list and the reason is simple. There is one actor who is a kind of undisputed king. He’s head and shoulders above the others and it just wouldn’t be fair to put him in the running. Charlie Chaplin is in a class all his own, so I’ve left him out.

Like with the Queen of the Golden Age movie of the week, this is not only based on popularity and frequency of great movies, but also frequency of how appearances on the IMDb top 250 list. Here are the would-be kings:

Humphrey Bogart (Casablanca, 1942, #28)

James Stewart (Vertigo, 1958, #65)

Cary Grant (North by Northwest, 1959, #61)
