Have to disagree, Gary Cooper was a pretty good actor and a great one in the right role. May I suggest you watch “High Noon” and “Sargent York” again.

"Let me tell ya something. Nowadays, everybody's gotta go to shrinks, and counselors, and go on "Sally Jessy Raphael" and talk about their problems. Whatever happened to Gary Cooper? The strong, silent type. That was an American. He wasn't in touch with his feelings. He just did what he had to do. See, what they didn't know was once they got Gary Cooper in touch with his feelings that they wouldn't be able to shut him up! And then it's dysfunction this, and dysfunction that, and dysfunction vaffancul!"

-James Gandolfini (6'1''), as Tony Soprano.
