NEW FROM EFSP: ALAN LADD

New from our friends at European Film Star Postcards---one of our favorite actors, Alan Ladd. 

Alan Ladd (1913-1964) had his big break as a killer in the film noir This Gun For Hire (1942). Throughout the 1940s, his tough-guy roles packed audiences, but he is best known for his title role in the classic Western Shane (1953).  Read and see much more here.

Ladd was fantastic as the gunfighter Shane. Here's a great clip of the gunfight with Jack Palance.
