Rock Hudson
1925—1985
The most famous hunk of the '50s was one of flesh peddler Henry Wilson's guys, a Midwestern macho man perfect for the burgeoning male vs. female genre that he perfected in performances alongside Doris Day. That he was gay wouldn't become common knowledge—in spite of '60s rumors that he'd "married" Jim Nabors—for decades. Hudson was the antithesis of co-star James Dean, a conservative team player who, while capable as an actor (see: Seconds from 1966), didn't immerse himself to deeply into the craft so much as he plunged into the glamour and ease of being an American sex object. An uncomplicated fantasy man.
