I was watching a bit of a movie from the 1930s. .... I wondered if those players thought that they were on their way to stardom. ...Can anyone name a current star (and their initial movie) who started out that way?
Recently I read that the movie "The Pawnbroker" (1964) starring Rod Steiger was being re-released. The film was critiqued and it mentioned that Morgan Freeman played a streetwise teen. I looked up Freeman's film bio and it listed "The Pawnbroker", but his part was not credited. On IMDB he is not credited either. I remember seeing this film in the theater and I recently watched some of it on TV. A very dark drama, but compelling story.
