The Greatest Heroes and Villains of Classic Cinema


 
Entertainment
It’s said that the best movies are the ones that make you feel a deep disdain for the villains. In movies back then, the heroes prevail over seemingly impossible circumstances, and the villains were just so wicked that they wouldn’t hesitate to take advantage of the most vulnerable characters.

The most popular heroes on screen are those with a sense of morality and courage, bound by their values even at the most insurmountable odds, staring adversity dead in the eyes, sacrificing themselves, and championing over adversity. The best heroes have a flawed side to their character, showing their human side and making them even more relatable.

The greatest villains were ultimately wicked, selfish, and menacing, with a constant thirst for power. These characters will do whatever it takes to get what they want. Some villainous characters mask their evil side through beauty and brilliance, while others won’t hide the ugly exterior that matches their nature.

Some of the greatest heroes that immediately come to mind include the sweet working class every-man who persevered and remained optimistic amidst immense challenges. Atticus Finch, played by Gregory Peck in To Kill a Mockingbird, was declared the top hero of all time by the American Film Institute. Defending an innocent black man accused of raping a white woman, amidst a racist town, Atticus had the guts to fight for what’s right, while keeping his integrity intact. You can go to websites that allow you to watch free movies, to check out more awesome heroes on film.

When it comes to villains, the American Film Institute has placed Hannibal Lecter in the top spot. Not many people would argue with this, given Anthony Hopkins’ portrayal of the menacing cannibalistic serial killer and psychiatrist in The Silence of the Lambs. With a penchant for the arts and cooking, the fact that his brilliance and nobility mask his dark side only makes him more threatening. Other villains worth mentioning are serial killer Norman Bates from Psycho, and Darth Vader from Star Wars. Watch free movies online to see these villains at their worst.

And for every sadistic and murderous Amon Göth, there’s a noble and valiant Oskar Schindler. These are just some memorable heroes and villains on screen. It may be a good idea for you to watch free movies online; it’s about time you become familiar with these amazingly complex characters.
