In Reply to: Everyone has one / Now you have the opportunity to tell / What is YOUR name of an forgotten ACTOR ? posted by patrickU on November 24, 2002 at 10:25:21:
Hardly a forgotten actor except for those who don't watch movies made prior to 1957. Power was a major "A" list actor who made more than his share of good movies.Two good ones are "Mark of Zorro", made in 1940, which co-starred Basil Rathbone. Power and (especially) Rathbone were excellent swordsmen (Rathbone had been a champion fencer) and their skill made the movie even better. I consider this the ultimate "Zorro" flick. The other film would be "Blood and Sand." This was a film about a bullfighter which was made in 1942. No classic - but close - and far better than the subsequent remakes.
The Power filmography is an interesting one.
He died of a heart attack at 45 in 1957.
