		Ladd's best-known role was as the mysterious gunfighter who wants to hang up his six-shooters, but is forced to defend a homesteading family in "Shane" (1953).
		Ladd's icy coolness, punctuated by two-fisted action, made him a favorite among film fans, who apparently didn't mind that Ladd was often several inches shorter than his co-stars.
		Ladd continued starring in action-packed films throughout the 1950s, including "The Red Beret" (1953), "Hell Below Zero" (1954), "Saskatchewan" (1954), "Hell on Frisco Bay" (1955), "The Proud Rebel" (1958), "The Badlanders" (1958) and "One Foot in Hell" (1960), but he was never able to match his earlier successes.

		Alan Ladd was robbed of an Oscar nomination back in 1953 for his haunting performance in SHANE.
		Ladd underplayed most of his roles especially Shane, where he could portray more with the look on his face and in his eyes than most, if not all modern actors can relate with the unneccesary histrionics they practice.
		Alan Ladd was my idol in my youth and still is. All his performances in movies were great, but SHANE has a special place in my heart.
