While I agree with most
of Chris’s Top 30 male
and female Hollywood
greats I would also add
Mel Gibson to the list
who, to my mind, is a
fantastic actor.
P Jones, Chelmsford
Mel Gibson
As usual Gary doesn’t
get a mention. He is an
amazing British talent
and it saddens me that
he had to go to America
to get recognition. He is
brilliant in all the films
he’s been in.
Ali Christie, South London
How can your film critic
list his Top 30 and leave
out Spencer Tracy who
was considered even by
his own peers during the
golden age of Hollywood
to be the greatest actor of
that era?
Garry Larkin, Kent
Schwarzenegger, Willis,
Cruise? Don’t make me
laugh. Precisely which of
their performances could
be rated above that of
Sidney Poitier in The Heat
of the Night or Guess
Who’s Coming to Dinner?
Alan Castree, Cumbria
Gary Oldman
Spencer Tracy
Sidney Poitier
How on earth is the brill-
iant Al Pacino missing?
Also, there’s no Dustin
Hoffman, Gene Hackman
or Robert Redford. Here
are four supreme stars
who have made many
outstanding films.
Thomas O’Flaherty, Notts
THe omission of Cate
Blanchett raised an
eyebrow. I was also
astonished Tom Hanks
didn’t make the Top 30
male actors. The likes of
John Wayne couldn’t tie
his bootlaces as an actor.
Martin Laffey, Hebburn
Al Pacino Cate Blanchett
James Stewart
How can anyone omit
from a list of Top 30 male
movie stars arguably the
greatest of them all,
James Stewart?
There are great film
actors and then there are
great movie stars, rarely
do the two coincide.
James Stewart
epitomised some of the
greatest screen acting,
combined with genuine
star quality and for
decades he was the first
choice leading man for
Hollywood’s top
directors.
Roger Sampson, South
East London
The most amazing omis-
sion was Meryl Streep.
She only has a mere 21
Academy Award nomin-
ations – and three wins!
I think Chris’s eyes were
glazed when he put
Marilyn Monroe at No2.
Sam Johnson, Blackpool
Meryl Streep
I know the job of
narrowing down the
Hollywood greats is
hellishly difficult but
surely Barbra Streisand
should get a mention as a
brilliant actress, singer
and director?
Paul Barker, Alfreton
Barbra Streisand
I enjoyed reading your list
and I like most of the
actors mentioned but
surely the brilliant Daniel
Day-Lewis deserves a
place? Morgan Freeman
is a great actor but is
often in a supporting role.
To m Campbell, Stirling
Daniel Day-Lewis
Brigitte Bardot
In your list there were
two obvious omissions –
Brigitte Bardot and
Sophia Loren who were
both the biggest sex
symbols of their era.
Maria Meredith, Hants
On this day
Ex-Emmerdale actress and
Eighth Wonder singer Patsy
Kensit is 52. She was married
to Oasis star Liam Gallagher.
Former Liverpool and Scotland
footballer Sir Kenny Dalglish
is 69. He’s still a regular visitor
at the club’s training sessions.
Gravel-voiced Driving Home for
Christmas singer Chris Rea is



  1. He is from Middlesbrough.
    And many happy returns to
    Daily Mirror reader John Paul
    Coyle, from Liverpool, who
    45 years agO (1975) turns 90 today.
    Silent film legend Charlie Chaplin,
    85, was knighted by the Queen. In
    2002 confidential papers said he
    had not been knighted previously
    because of his communist beliefs.


54 years agO (1966)
John Lennon’s claim The Beatles
were “bigger than Jesus” was
seized on by US religious leaders.
Some radio stations banned their
songs and protests were held.

35 years agO (1985)
We revealed the “bitter end” of
the year-long miners’ strike after
NUM delegates voted 98 to 91
to return to work without an
agreement on pit closures.
