Who was in more than 50 hollywood movies before coming president?

Answer 1

Ronald Reagan was an actor who starred in Warner Brothers movies from 1937 until 1942, when he was ordered to join the military. In 1945, he became part of the United States' First Motion Picture Unit. Reagan made eight additional commercial movies, the last in 1964 (The Killers).

Some of his better known movies included:

• Dark Victory
• Santa Fe Trail
• Knute Rockne, All American
• Kings Row (considered his best film)
• Bedtime for Bonzo
• Hell Cats of the Navy

Ronald Reagan's first screen credit was the starring role in the 1937 movie Love Is on the Air, and by the end of 1939 he had already appeared in 19 films, including Dark Victory. Before the film Santa Fe Trail in 1940, he played the role of George "The Gipper" Gipp in the film Knute Rockne, All American; from it, he acquired the lifelong nickname "the Gipper".Reagan's favorite acting role was in 1942's Kings Row, in which he recites the line, "Where's the rest of me?", later used as the title of his 1965 autobiography. Many film critics considered Kings Row to be his best movie, though the film was condemned by New York Times critic Bosley Crowther.

Reagan called Kings Row the film that "made me a star". However, he was unable to capitalize on his success because he enlisted in the U.S. Army two months after its release. He never regained star status. After returning from World War II service, Reagan acted in Tennessee's Partner, This Is the Army, The Hasty Heart, Bedtime for Bonzo, Cattle Queen of Montana, Hellcats of the Navy and The Killers.
