Classic Movie Actor Tournament (Silent/1930's) Era Round 1 Matches

Let's begin the Classic Movie Actor Tournament..finally! The polls are on the right sidebar and you will have until Wednesday to vote for your favorite. And like before, you only get one vote per match.

I think the key matches will be John Barrymore vs Ronald Colman and Valentino vs Cagney. That Gilbert/Keaton match looks interesting as well. We shall see.

    Monty, I'm ready to vote in your new poll; I see some of my favorite actors are included. I have an observation regarding the first set of photos. You have Clark Gable and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. shown as the first selection, but there is no gadget/widget to place a vote.
