Gary Cooper
Ba aisteoir Meiriceánach ó bhunadh Briotanach é Gary Cooper (7 Bealtaine, 1901 – 13 Bealtaine, 1961) a bhuaigh Gradaim an Acadaimh dhá uair. Lean a shaol oibre ó na 1920ídí go dtí bliain a bháis. Bhí aithne air mar gheall ar a stíl aisteoireachta ciúin agus a phearsa stóchúil, tréan, a d'oir go mór do na rólanna sna Westerns inar ghlac sé páirt.
Fuair Cooper cúig ainmniúchán Oscar don duais Aisteoir is Fearr, le linn a shaol oibre, agus bhain sé dhá uair é. Fuair sé Duais Onórach freisin ón Acadamh i 1961, cúpla seachtain roimh a bháis.
Óige
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Rugadh Cooper faoin ainm Frank James Cooper i Helena, Montana. Bhí cónaí air agus é ina bhuachaill i mBedfordhire, Sasana, lena mháthair Alice, agus a dheartháir ní ba mhó, Arthur Le Roy. D'fhreastail sé ar scoil Dunstable (scoil phoiblí[1]) idir 1909 agus 1912.
Chuaigh sé ar ais go dtí na Stáit Aontaithe sa bhliain 1912. Gortaíodh é i dtimpiste gluaisteáin agus é trí bliana déag d'aois, agus bhí air bogadh go dtí rainse a athar i Montana, SAM le biseach a fháil, áit a ghnóthaigh sé a chuid scileanna marcaíochta.
Sna blianta 1922 agus 1923, bhí sé ag obair mar threoraí turasóireachta i Yellowstone.
Hollywood
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Bhog sé go Los Angeles i 1924, áit a fuair sé post mar dhuine sa bhreis sa tionscail scannánaíochta.
Bliain ina dhiaidh dá chéad scannán gearr mar phríomhaisteoir, glaodh go Paramount Studios é agus ofráladh conradh fadtéarmach dó, rud a ghlac sé leis.
D'athraigh sé a ainm go Gary (ó Frank) i 1925, de réir chomhairle a ionadaí, a d'fhás suas i Gary, Indiana.
Thar na blianta, bhí ról ag Cooper i níos mó ná céad scannán. Bhain sé a chéad duais Oscar don Aisteoir is Fearr i 1941 dá ról i Sergeant York. I 1952, bhain Cooper an dara Oscar dá ról mar Marshal Will Kane i High Noon, a léiriú ab fhearr de réir na gcriticeoirí.
Bás
[cuir in eagar | athraigh foinse]Fuair Cooper bás ó ailse scamhóige i 1961, sé lá i ndiaidh dó seasca bliain a chomóradh. Cuireadh é i reilig an Chroí Ró-Naofa i Southampton, Nua-Eabhrac.
Chuaigh sé faoin scian do ailse próstatach agus putóige an bhliain roimhe sin ach ní raibh modh ann ag an am chun monatóireacht a dhéanamh ar ailse.
Bhí sé ró-bhreoite chun freastal ar an Oscar in Aibreán 1961, agus dá bhrí sin ghlac a dhlúth-chara James Stewart a Oscar onórach ina áit.
Ba léir ó óráid tochtmhar Stewart go raibh rud éigin mícheart, agus an lá ina dhiaidh bhí ceann-teideal ar nuachtáin ar fud an domhain, "Tá ailse ag Gary Cooper". Mí ina dhiaidh sin, fuair an t-aisteoir bás.
