Steve McQueen

James Dean

Its annoying when people say who they vote for then don't actually add the vote. @Bobby Hundreds 

 

 

It's in the post.

Cary Grant invented cool. Bogey a close second

Connery, Newman, McQueen et al learned it from them

[Anubis]

No Sidney Poitier or Denzel Washington.

Its not going to matter anyway. It doesn't matter. 

[Stickman]

Newman...That cool he even had a movie named in his honour...

 

 

[easytoslip]

I wouldn't know, as they're just acting. 

 

[Captain Howdy]

Humphrey Bogart

To Sir With Love inspired me to be a teacher and a bus driver. No bus driver no trip to the museum. 

 

As for Denzel, never really wanted to be a hospital porter.

Think Sinatra should’ve been on there, “other” notwithstanding.

Possibly the most racist thread on the internet.

I gave Sinatra careful consideration but decided I associate him more with music than film, even though he was a very good actor. He was undoubtedly cool, though.

Have to admit that I totally forgot about Poitier. Considered Washington, an actor whom I like a lot, but felt I couldn’t leave out any of the others.

[Josef Svejk]

George Kennedy.

[Vincent Vega]

Judged on coolness.

Samuel L Jackson is in every film

Robert Mitchum was worth a shout and agree on Charles Bronson (not the greatest actor but undoubtedly cool). Always loved Lee Van Cleef as well.

 

Of those Tony selected and his criteria, had to go for Steve McQueen. Maybe not the greatest actor, but undoubtedly the coolest.

 

Shout out to Gene Hackman too who although without a vote is a certified legend.

[Vincent Vega]

Clint Eastwood’s politics rule him out of any consideration when it comes to coolness surely?

Considered Bronson and Mitchum but, as previously mentioned, had the restriction of just 20 choices. Other actors I reluctantly left out include: James Cagney, Kirk Douglas, Morgan Freeman, Dennis Hopper and James Stewart.

All would have been worthy Tone, and all have the coolness vibe. 
 

Anyway, coolness personified.

Quite how James Cagney is left out boggles the mind.

I just thought there wouldn’t be enough posters familiar with him or his films.
