Hollywood’s Oldest Surviving Stars Prove That Age Is Just a Number
Roger Corman – 97 Years Old
Roger Corman, the “King of the B-movies,” transformed independent cinema with his innovative, budget-conscious approach. He gained fame in the 1950s and made waves with low-budget films that challenged Hollywood norms. His 1960s Edgar Allan Poe adaptations, like “The Fall of the House of Usher,” masterfully balanced artistic vision with commercial appeal.
A mentor to future legends like Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese, Roger’s influence continued with cult classics like “Death Race 2000.” His legacy spans over 400 films, but his pioneering spirit and mentorship in filmmaking truly mark his contribution to cinema, inspiring filmmakers to think outside the box and push creative boundaries.
