I have been watching Gary Cooper movies lately. Many or rewatchs. In case you don't know about him he was an actor and popular in movies from 1926 until 1961. I adored him in more than one of his 60-70 movies where he always played a rather unassuming and humble man. I might like his performances so much too because he reminded me a lot of my day who was rather shy and retiring. Some of my favorite movies of his are: The Plainsman(1936) with Jean Arthur, The Cowboy and the Lady(1938) with Merle Oberon, Beau Geste(1938), Susan Hayward Sergeant York(1941), With Joan Leslie Ball of Fire(1941) with Barbara Stanwick , Along Came Jones(1945) with Loretta Young, Saratoga Trunk(1945)with Ingread Bergman, Bright Leaf(1950) with Lauren Bacall Friendly Persuasion(1956) with Dorothy McGuire.

I'm pretty sure I've seen all these movies at one time or another. Gary Cooper was one of the best.

@celticeagle Jean Author and Loretta Young are another two stars I hadn't thought about in a long time.
