greatposters.com Gary Cooper He was paired with Colleen Moore in Lilac Time and Nancy Carroll in Shopworn Angel two successful 1929 dramas set during World War 1. Talkies found Cooper refining his naturally taciturn Western character; in The Virginian (1929), he rarely spoke unless he had something to say, including the famous line, "When you call me that, smile" delivered to swearing badman Walter Huston. Initially he supported the studio's top stars-Clara Bow in It (1927) and Children of Divorce (1927), Bow, Richard Arlen, and Buddy Rogers in the Oscar winning Wings (1927)-but made his own mark as a top-billed star of Paramount's program Westerns, including 1927's Arizona Bound, Nevada and The Last Outlaw. www.greatposters.com /cooper.html   (698 words)
