Paintings of the Stars - Charlton Heston and Nathanial Benchley
Charlton Heston; 1963
I think everyone still knows who Charlton Heston is, and I can't think of anything new to add to that conversation. I do love this photograph. Chuck obviously had no problem showing how cool he was.
Nathaniel Benchley
Frankly, I had no idea when I saved this photo of Nathaniel Benchley who he was, but when I researched him, I found about a million reasons I adore him and didn't know it:
His dad was Robert Benchley, noted humorist, actor, and about a dozen other things. He was a great comedian and definitely fun in any film appearance. Benchley's "How to" shorts are classics.
Jaws
His son, Peter Benchley, wrote Jaws, which is a pop culture icon. Freaky as all get out, but some great acting.
