A recipient of two Academy Awards , she was the first thespian to garner ten nominations . After appearing in Broadway plays , the 22-year old Davis moved to Hollywood in 1930 . After some unsuccessful films , she had her critical breakthrough playing a vulgar waitress in Of Human Bondage ( 1934 ) , although , contentiously , she was not among the three nominees for the Academy Award for Best Actress that year .

In 1937 , she tried to free herself from her contract with Warner Brothers Studio ; although she lost the legal case , it marked the start of more than a decade as one of the most celebrated leading ladies of US cinema , known for her forceful and intense style .

In his earliest parts he acted in a string of mediocre films , including swashbucklers , westerns , light comedies , sports films and a musical . However , by the time he starred in Houdini ( 1953 ) with his wife Janet Leigh , his first clear success , notes critic David Thomson , his acting had progressed immensely . He achieved his first serious recognition as a dramatic actor in Sweet Smell of Success ( 1957 ) with co-star Burt Lancaster . The following year he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in The Defiant Ones ( 1958 ) alongside Sidney Poitier ( who was also nominated in the same category ) . Curtis then gave what could arguably be called his best performance : three interrelated roles in the comedy Some Like It Hot ( 1959 ) . Thomson called it an outrageous film , and an American Film Institute survey voted it the funniest American film ever made . The film co-starred Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe , and was directed by Billy Wilder . That was followed by Blake Edwardss Operation Petticoat ( 1959 ) with Cary Grant .
Henry Jaynes Fonda ( May 16 , 1905 - August 12 , 1982 ) was an American film and stage actor who had a career that spanned five decades in Hollywood .

His film career began to gain momentum with roles such as Bette Davis 's fiancee in her Academy Award-winning performance in Jezebel ( 1938 ) , brother Frank in Jesse James ( 1939 ) , and the future President in Young Mr. Lincoln ( 1939 ) , directed by John Ford . His early career peaked with his Academy Award-nominated performance as Tom Joad in The Grapes of Wrath , about an Oklahoma family who moved to California during the Dust Bowl 1930s . This film is widely considered to be among the greatest American films . In 1941 he starred opposite Barbara Stanwyck in the screwball comedy classic The Lady Eve .

In 1957 he starred as Juror No.8 , the hold-out juror , in 12 Angry Men , a critical success and now regarded as a seminal film . Fonda , who was also co-producer , won the BAFTA for Best Foreign Actor . Later in his career , Fonda moved into darker roles , such as the villain in the epic Once Upon a Time in the West ( 1968 ) , underrated and a box office disappointment at its time of release , but now regarded as one of the best westerns of all-time .

The Boston Strangler is the name given to the murderer of 13 women in the Boston , Massachusetts area during the early 1960s . The crimes were attributed to Albert DeSalvo based on his confession , details revealed in court during a separate case , and DNA evidence linking him to the last victim .

David Michael Krueger ( March 5 , 1939 - March 5 , 2010 ) , best known by his birth name , Peter Woodcock , was a Canadian serial killer , child rapist and diagnosed psychopath . He gained notoriety for the murders of three young children in Toronto in the late 1950s , as well as for a murder in 1991 on his first day of unsupervised release from the psychiatric institution in which he had been incarcerated for his earlier crimes . An adopted child , Krueger lived in numerous foster homes as an infant , and showed signs of severe emotional trauma when he found a permanent foster home at the age of 3 . Unable to adjust to social situations , he was bullied by his peers . He would often wander from his home by foot , bicycle or train to parts of Toronto where he would molest dozens , and ultimately murder three young children . Found not guilty by reason of insanity for his crimes , he was sent to a psychiatric facility . Experimental treatment programs for psychopathy tried with him proved ineffective when he murdered a fellow psychiatric patient in 1991 ; after his death in 2010 , he was described in the Toronto Star as the serial killer they could n't cure .
Uta Erickson ( who often used the stage names Artemidia Grillet and Carla Erikson ) was a Norwegian actress who was in many sexploitation films of the late 1960s . She starred in several provocatively titled films directed by Michael and Roberta Findlay , including The Kiss Of Her Flesh , A Thousand Pleasures , The Curse Of Her Flesh , and The Ultimate Degenerate . Erickson was also a favorite of directors Doris Wishman ( Love Toy ) and Barry Mahon ( Sex Killer ) . Some of her films , notably Mnasidika were arty enough to pass as the low end of an arthouse pairing with a film by a European auteur . At her best , such as in Passion in Hot Hollows directed by Joe Sarno , her acting could make a softcore scene far more erotic . Deep Throat rang the death knell to this softcore genre and effectively ended Erickson 's film career .
The Detective is a 1968 neo-noir crime film directed by Gordon Douglas , produced by Aaron Rosenberg and starring Frank Sinatra , based on the 1966 novel of the same name by Roderick Thorp .

The book 's rights were owned by Robert Evans , who was to produce the film , but never got a chance to when Evans was hired by Gulf and Western to run Paramount Pictures . The Detective marked a move towards - and was billed as - a more adult approach to depicting the life and work of a police detective while confronting , for one of the first times in mainstream cinema , previously taboo subjects such as homosexuality . Here , the detective in question is Joe Leland , who is trying to juggle marital issues with a murder case that seemed to be open-and-shut at first , but runs much deeper than he could have imagined . The Detective was Sinatra 's fourth collaboration with director Douglas , having worked together on Young at Heart ( 1954 ) , Robin and the 7 Hoods ( 1964 ) , Tony Rome ( 1967 ) , and then later Lady in Cement ( 1968 ) .

Claude Henri Jean Chabrol ( French : [ klod ʃabʁɔl ] ; 24 June 1930 - 12 September 2010 ) was a French film director and a member of the French New Wave ( nouvelle vague ) group of filmmakers who first came to prominence at the end of the 1950s . Like his colleagues and contemporaries Jean-Luc Godard , François Truffaut , Éric Rohmer and Jacques Rivette , Chabrol was a critic for the influential film magazine Cahiers du cinéma before beginning his career as a film maker . Chabrol 's career began with Le Beau Serge ( 1958 ) , inspired by Hitchcock 's Shadow of a Doubt ( 1943 ) . Thrillers became something of a trademark for Chabrol , with an approach characterized by a distanced objectivity . This is especially apparent in Les Biches ( 1968 ) , La Femme infidèle ( 1969 ) , and Le Boucher ( 1970 ) - all featuring Stéphane Audran , who was his wife at the time . Sometimes characterized as a mainstream New Wave director , Chabrol remained prolific and popular throughout his half-century career . In 1978 , he cast Isabelle Huppert as the lead in Violette Nozière . On the strength of that effort , the pair went on to others including the successful Madame Bovary ( 1991 ) and La Cérémonie ( 1996 ) . Film critic John Russell Taylor has stated that there are few directors whose films are more difficult to explain or evoke on paper , if only because so much of the overall effect turns on Chabrol 's sheer hedonistic relish for the medium.Some of his films become almost private jokes , made to amuse himself . James Monaco has called Chabrol the craftsman par excellence of the New Wave , and his variations upon a theme give us an understanding of the explicitness and precision of the language of the film that we do n't get from the more varied experiments in genre of Truffaut or Godard .

Massimo Girotti ( 18 May 1918 - 5 January 2003 ) was an Italian film actor whose career spanned seven decades . Born in Mogliano , in the province of Macerata , Girotti developed his athletic physique by swimming and playing polo . While studying engineering , he attracted the attention of Mario Soldati , who offered him a small part in the film Dora Nelson ( 1939 ) , but it was not until later , in Alessandro Blasetti 's La corona di ferro ( The Iron Crown ) ( 1941 ) and Roberto Rossellini 's Un Pilota ritorna ( A Pilot Returns ) ( 1942 ) , that he began to make an impression as a serious actor . In 1943 came a turning point in his career when Luchino Visconti cast him opposite the torrid Clara Calamai in Ossessione ( Obsession ) , an earlier adaptation of the same novel on which Hollywood 's The Postman Always Rings Twice is based . The film marked , in a sense , the birth of Italian neo-realism . Some of his notable post-war films include Caccia tragica ( The Tragic Hunt ) ( 1946 ) by Giuseppe De Santis and In nome della legge ( 1949 ) ( In the Name of the Law ) by Pietro Germi . In 1950 , he starred opposite Lucia Bosé in Michelangelo Antonioni 's first full-length feature , Cronaca di un amore ( Story of a Love Affair ) ( 1950 ) . In 1953 , he played Spartacus in an Italian epic film known in the US as Sins of Rome and then , returned to work again for Visconti , in Senso ( 1954 ) , giving perhaps the finest performance of his career . In the years which followed , he appeared in many mainly Italian films for directors such as Lizzani , Bolognini , Vittorio Cottafavi , Lattuada , but it was not until 1968 that he once again played a role worthy of his talents - that of the father in Pasolini 's Teorema ( Theorem ) with Terence Stamp and Silvana Mangano . Two years later , Pasolini cast him as Creonte opposite Maria Callas in his Medea ( 1969 ) . In 1972 , he was in Bernardo Bertolucci 's Last Tango in Paris . That same year he made a rare appearance in a horror film when he agreed to a supporting role in Baron Blood as a favor to its director Mario Bava .
