5. Legends of the Silver Screen: William Holden
- www.uwp.edu
- Legends of the Silver Screen: William Holden .
- William Holden is one of classic Hollywoods stars that people today wish current stars were more like. ...
- Holden burst upon the scene in his leading man debut in Golden Boy (1939). Positive career building films such as Our Town (1940), I Wanted Wings (1941), and The Fleets In (1942), among others, kept Holden in the public eye. ...
- The 1950s brought about a unique situation for Holden. ... Holden, still young but matured from war, had the chance to rise to Hollywood stardom due to the drop off of established stars. ... Staglag 17 (1953), won Holden his first and only Oscar. Holdens popularity continued with the high grossing films Sabrina (1954) which co-starred Audrey Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart, Love Is a Many Splendored Thing (1955), and Picnic (1955). ...
- Holden scored a major coup when he negotiated a contract that would make him part owner of The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), a film in which he also starred along with Alec Guinness. Though Holden did not receive an Academy Award for the film, The Bridge on the River Kwai, took in 7 awards including Best Picture. The success of the film earned Holden a substantial paycheck and perhaps more importantly contained one his most popular roles, in which he portrayed an American soldier who escapes from a Japanese prison camp during World War II. ...
- A career decline occurred in the 1960s partly due to Holdens disposition to travel in which he greatly indulged himself during the decade. Holdens best-known performance of the decade came in The Wild Bunch (1969), which was at the time one of the most graphically violent movies ever filmed. ...
- Holden received his final Oscar nomination for his role in Network, as an aging TV executive who became jaded by the industry. The film contains the memorable movie line, "Im mad as Hell and Im not going to take it anymore," though it wasnt spoken by Holdens character.
- William Holden died after hitting his head during a drunken episode in 1981, which brought an abrupt end to a marvelous film career. Along with the films he left behind as a legacy is The William Holden Wildlife Preserve in Africa established with his own money to protect wildlife. ...

- William Holden (1918 -1981).
- But William Holden beat the odds by achieving instant stardom with his first leading role, that of the wholesome young prizefighter in Golden Boy (1939). ... The handsome, earnest young Holden had bits in Prison Farm (1938) and Million Dollar Legs (1939) before being chosen out of 65 candidates (including John Garfield) to play sensitive Joe Bonaparte, the violinist-turned-boxer in the Columbia production Golden Boy His inexperience made filming difficult, and after two weeks Columbia president Harry Cohn was ready to fire him-but costar Barbara Stanwyck, who had great faith in Holden, persuaded the executive to relent. Although the film took some liberties with the Clifford Odets play, Holden's performance was singled out for nearunanimous praise. ...
- Although Holden supported George Raft in the Warner Bros. ... His early films didn't always show him to best advantage, but Holden built a fan following on the strength of wellreceived appearances in Our Town, Arizona (both 1940), I Wanted Wings, Texas (both 1941), The Remarkable Andrew, Meet the Stewarts, The Fleet's In (all 1942), and Young and Willing (1943). ...
- Still youthfully handsome, Holden worked in comedies, dramas, thrillers, and Westerns with equal facility, appearing in Dear Ruth (1947), Apartment for Peggy, The Man From Colorado, Rachel and the Stranger (all 1948), Miss Grant Takes Richmond, Streets of Laredo and Dear Wife (all 1949).
- But Holden's maturity-built in part on his wartime experiences-came to the fore inThe Dark Side (1948), in which he played an escaped killer, and reached fruition in Billy Wilder's sardonic black comedy, Sunset Blvd (1950, regarded by many as his finest performance), as the hack screenwriter who milks his unhealthy relationship with washed-up movie star Gloria Swanson. ... Wilder exploited that aspect of Holden's talent in his 1953 prisoner-of-war drama Stalag 17 which won the star his only Academy Award for his finely limned characterization of a smooth-talking con man who may or may not be informing on his fellow prisoners.
- Unfortunately, Holden was a double victim of the studio system. ... His luck improved in mid-decade, with a string of fine films:Executive Suite (which reunited him with Stanwyck), The Bridges at Toko-Ri, Sabrina, The Country Girl (all 1954),Love Is a Many Splendored Thing (1955), and Picnic (also 1955, which included the smoldering dance scene with Kim Novak that Holden was so nervous about he had to film it dead drunk!). Many of these films were among the top grossers of their day, solidifying Holden's star standing during the transitional decade of the 1950s, which saw many big names of the 1930s and 1940s pass from the scene. ...
- After making Toward the Unknown and The Proud and Profane (both 1956), Holden negotiated a ground-breaking contract with Columbia to star in David Lean's blockbuster The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), which made him a part-owner of the film; the film was, quite rightly, an enormous success, and the deal he made paid him handsomely for years to come. ...
- Holden loved traveling; he accepted some film assignments for the opportunity to go to exotic locations, and journeyed to other regions of the world on his own. ...
- Sam Peckinpah's blood-soaked Western, The Wild Bunch (1969), took advantage of Holden's increasingly apparent weariness; as one of the aging outlaws who plans to retire after staging a final haul, he turned in one of his best performances in years. Wild Rovers (1971), The Revengers (1972), and Breezy (1973, directed by Clint Eastwood) didn't amount to much, but Holden enjoyed considerable success in the TV-movie The Blue Knight (1973, earning an Emmy Award for his performance), The Towering Inferno (1974), and, especially, Network (1976). ...

16. The Wild Bunch/William Holden
- web.ukonline.co.uk
- William Holden 1918-1981.
- Born William Franklin Beedle, Jr. ... Nonetheless, Holden's forte would be in what he'd always consider a "sissy" profession acting. Spotted by a talent scout during a stage production at Pasadena Junior College, Holden was signed by both Paramount and Columbia, who would share his contract for the next two decades. After one bit role, Holden was thrust into the demanding leading part of boxer Joe Bonaparte in Golden Boy (1939). He was so green and nervous that Columbia considered replacing him, but costar Barbara Stanwyck took it upon herself to coach the young actor and build up his confidence -- a selfless act for which Holden would be grateful until the day he died. After serving as a lieutenant in the Army's special services unit, Holden returned to films, mostly in light, inconsequential roles. ...
- Director Billy Wilder changed all that by casting Holden as Joe Gillis, embittered failed screenwriter and "kept man" of Gloria Swanson in the Hollywood-bashing classic Sunset Boulevard (1950). Wilder also directed Holden in the role of the cynical, conniving but ultimately heroic American POW Sefton in Stalag 17 (1953), for which the actor won an Academy Award. ...
- The private Holden began to develop a reputation during this period as a loyal friend, cooperative actor and tireless activist in the Screen Actor's Guild when sober -- but a nasty, vindictive monster when drunk. Holden was known to put up his dukes at the slightest provocation; and despite his long marriage to Ardis Ankerson, an actress known professionally as Brenda Marshall, Holden conducted several serious affairs with such leading ladies as Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and Capucine. Holden became a man of the world, as it were, when he moved to Switzerland to avoid heavy taxation on his earnings. While traversing the globe, Holden developed an interest in African wildlife preservation, spending much of his off-camera time campaigning for humane treatment of animals and raising funds for that purpose. ...
- Holden evinced an erratic sensibility: for Counterfeit Traitor (1962), in 1969 he played the lead roll as Pike Bishop, an ageing outlaw, in Sam Peckinpah's, The Wild Bunch. ...
- Holden's incessant imbibing had alienated him from most of his friends and all but destroyed his relationship with actress Stefanie Powers, and sadly, his alcohol dependency resulted in his death. When Holden died in 1981, it was not as a result of a movie stunt or a mishap during an African safari, but from tripping on a rug, gashing his head on a table, and bleeding to death. Holden was too drunk to comprehend the extent of his injury or to help himself. ...
