on whether you started out with Hollywood films or films from some other source. For people born and living in non-English speaking countries with strong cinema traditions of their own, they aren't going to think first of Hollywood when they think of iconic actors and directors.

Hell, even the British are likely to be prone to think of their own actors and directors rather than Hollywood given the strength of their cinema industry at the time of the actors you named, and the British actually speak English, not american.

Here in Australia we copped both Hollywood and Pinewood, and probably got Pinewood in a much larger dose than you did in the US so our lists would tend to include some British actors as well as the Hollywood ones.

This sort of list is always culture dependent and there are other cultures besides US american. Some are even better than US american.
