Greatest Film Stars - Their Greatest Roles and Filmographies (see index below) contains a selected sampling of the starring roles that best define the screen presence or persona of some of the greatest stars of the American cinema. The definitive screen role is often the one for which the actor or actress is best-remembered. In some cases, some actors/actresses - over a long, prolific career - have had more than one exemplary or essential example of their acting portrayed in films.
For comparison, see Movieline Magazine's selections of the 100 Best Female Character Roles, and Premiere Magazine's selections of the 100 Greatest Movie Characters of All Time and the 100 Greatest Movie Performances of All-Time.
Another polling of greatest film star legends was done by the AFI in June of 1999, called AFI's 25 Greatest Men and 25 Greatest Women Screen Legends in the first century of American Film. The 50 screen legends were selected from an initial list of 500 nominees (250 per gender): 500 Star Legends. The 50 Screen Legends are identified by their rankings and this graphic symbol
