Shirly Temple

 

Her movies from the age of 2 yrs to 10 yrs, I am still amazed to this day that a baby grew up on screen had such a talent to act, memorize lines as well as everyone elses, sing & dance.

She was certainly a phenomenon and apparently an "industry" unto herself in the old days.

 

My mother had a Shirley Temple doll as well as paper dolls and storybooks.

 

My great-aunt said she used to wear Shirley Temple dresses as a child. Those items were probably only the tip of the iceberg as far as merchandise sold under her name.

Oh, boy, @Coquille.   So hard!

 

For inventiveness, technical brilliance, sheer bravado, I have to go with Laurence Olivier.

 

 


I agree with @Oznell   

 

And Cary Grant is one of my favorites:
