Stars Of The Early Sound Era, No. 8: Edward G. Robinson

One of the greatest actors of all time. Not only did he never win a competitive Oscar (he was given an honorary Oscar two months after his death), he was never even nominated.

  2. Not for Key Largo, not for Double Indemnity, not for nothing.
