We have been spoiled with the prodigious number of brilliant performances such actors as Meryl Streep, Judi Dench, and Alec Guinness. This course will offer tribute to gifted movie actors whose careers were too short. Hearing their names -William Holden, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jean Harlow, Brittany Murphy - makes us wistful. Which of them received their due in fame and honor? Which did not?
