Western (美国西部片)
In those days Hollywood was like a magnet, drawing ambitious young men and women from all over the world. Most of them had only good looks to recommend them and had no acting experience —or ability— whatsoever. Occasionally they got jobs, if they were lucky enough to be noticed. Gary Cooper was one of the few who were noticed. He started as a stunt rider, and from there rose to be one of the great stars of the early Westerns.

那些日子里好莱坞像块磁铁，吸引着世界各地满怀抱负的青年男女。他们当中的大多数只有能让人看得见的漂亮的外表，并无任何表演经验或者才干。如果他们走运能被人们注意到，偶尔也能在电影里弄个角色演演。盖瑞古博就是那些被人注意到的为数不多的年轻人中的一位。他开始的时候是做马术替身，此后一跃成为出演早期美国西部片的著名影星之一。
