(Image credit: Janus Films) The 1960s is so much more than groovy hippies, progressive rockers, and mod fashionistas. And as far as movies go, they had some of the greatest characters ever imagined. From wisecracking gunslingers to troubled women to cowboys riding atop nuclear warheads, below are 32 of the greatest movie characters from the 1960s. 32. Col. George Taylor (Planet of the Apes) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) 30. Lucky Jackson (Viva Las Vegas) (Image credit: MGM) 29. Old Woman (Onibaba) (Image credit: Toho) Sign up for the Total Film Newsletter Bringing all the latest movie news, features, and reviews to your inbox 28. Michel (Breathless) (Image credit: Société nouvelle de cinématographie) 27. King Ghidorah (Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster) (Image credit: Toho) In 1954, Godzilla rose from the depths and stomped through Tokyo, laying waste to the place with his atomic breath. Ten years later, Godzilla became Earth’s protector from an even greater menace: Ghidorah, a three-headed golden dragon evocative of Japanese myth. No matter his origins be it ancient or alien, Ghidorah – who made his screen debut in the 1964 picture Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster – enjoys enduring status as one of Godzilla’ biggest rivals, a beast capable of immense destruction. Ghidorah is just an all-time great movie monster, and soars above others in the Godzilla canon for his sheer intimidating presence. 26. Barbarella (Barbarella) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) 25. Christine (Eyes Without a Face) (Image credit: Janus Films) It’s poetic that in Georges Franju’s Eyes Without a Face, it is the one with the most hideous facial deformity whose conscience remains intact. In Franju’s French horror classic, Édith Scob stars as Christine, the presumed-dead daughter of celebrated physician Dr. Génessier (Pierre Brasseur). In truth, Christine is the survivor of a violent car accident, and in her isolation suffers from devastating scars. This leads Dr. Génessier (and his assistant) to kidnap beautiful young women and harvest their faces for experimental procedures to “cure” Christine’s ailment. But while her father has become a monster, Christine maintains her humanity, even if outside society would shun her in return. 24. Butch Cassidy and Harry Longabaugh (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) In their first outing as an onscreen pair, Paul Newman and Robert Redford shone bright as the outlaw gunslingers Butch Cassidy and “Sundance Kid” Harry Longabaugh. Boasting complementary contrast personalities – Butch being the exuberant shot-caller, and Harry preferring to keep his hat brim low and attention fixated on schoolteacher Etta – the two earn their place as one of cinema’s best male duos, being the blueprint for action-comedy pairs for decades to come. Way before social media and TikTok popularized the idea of having a “ride and die,” Butch Cassidy and Harry Longabaugh lived up to that spirit, enjoying immortality in their freeze-frame closing shot. 23. Dolores Haze (Lolita) (Image credit: MGM) Sadly, Lyon’s memorable portrayal came with eerily fitting downsides to herself, as Lyons subsequently expressed difficulty maintaining her mental and emotional health after being thrust into fame at a young age over her sexuality. In 1996, Lyons told The Independent: “My destruction as a person dates from that movie. Lolita exposed me to temptations no girl of that age should undergo. I defy any pretty girl who is rocketed to stardom at 14 in a sex nymphet role to stay on a level path thereafter.” 22. Dolly Levi (Hello, Dolly!) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) In most versions of the musical Hello, Dolly!, Dolly Levi is a beloved middle-aged woman whose new lease on life has her eager to match up singles and meddle in the affairs of others. In the 1969 film version with superstar Barbara Streisand, Dolly Levi is tad more coarse, but she’s no less a treat to witness, being so lively and as colorful as her resplendent wardrobe. Although Streisand reportedly did not get along with either her co-star Walter Matthau and director Gene Kelly behind the scenes, it did not dampen Dolly Levi from exploding with radiance. 21. Lucas “Luke” Jackson (Cool Hand Luke) (Image credit: Warner Bros.) Paul Newman forever cemented his place in movie history for his performance as rebellious prison inmate Luke Jackson, in Stuart Rosenberg’s 1967 classic Cool Hand Luke. As Newman’s unmatched movie star charisma bleeds through Luke’s dirty prison yard threads, Luke becomes the patron saint of defiance, disrupting his oppressive establishment with a true sense of humor. An aspirational figure of anarchy, Luke Jackson makes stirring disorder on the chain gang look so damn good. 20. Lt. Frank Bullitt (Bullitt) (Image credit: Warner Bros.) 19. Ryunosuke (The Sword of Doom) (Image credit: Toho) 18. Maria Von Trapp (The Sound of Music) (Image credit: 20th Century Studios) How do you solve a problem like Maria? One year after Julie Andrews played a magical nanny to some British brats in Mary Poppins, she again became governess to seven Austrian misfits in Robert Wise’s movie version of Roger & Hammerstein’s The Sound of Music. While Mary Poppins floats with all theDisneymagic, Andrews’ Maria Von Trapp is more grounded, being an instructive teacher in what it means to relish life and take on its many challenges with a song. With Andrews’ towering performance, Maria Von Trapp is hardly a “problem” that needs solving. 17. Major T.J. Kong (Dr. Strangelove) (Image credit: Columbia Pictures) Peter Sellers plays multiple characters in Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove, yet there’s one character hedoesn’tplay who inspires one of its most enduring images. Slim Pickens co-stars in the 1964 war satire as Major T.J. “King” Kong, a cartoonishly patriotic B-52 commander who rides an H-bomb to the ground, hootin’ and hollerin’ the whole way down. The best part is that Pickens was not told that the movie was a black comedy, and his whole performance is the result of playing the part as straight as possible. Even better: According to Kubrick biographer John Baxter in a documentary interview, Slim Pickens showed up to set on his first day dressed head to toe in cowboy clothing. Everyone thought he arrived in costume. They learned later that Slim Pickens just always dressed like that in real life. 16. Mrs. Robinson (The Graduate) (Image credit: Lionsgate) Here’s to you, Mrs. Robinson. In Mike Nichols’ timeless rom-com drama, Anne Bancroft stars as the unpredictable seductress Mrs. Robinson, a middle-age woman in a loveless marriage who ignites a steamy affair with young college graduate Benjamin (Dustin Hoffman). Slowly, Mrs. Robinson becomes the movie’s antagonist, using their affair to keep Benjamin from dating her daughter Elaine. Highly emotional and manipulative, Mrs. Robinson is proof that some of the best movie villains are those who can lure you in with a smile and a smoke. 15. “Pierrot” Ferdinand and Marianne (Pierrot le Fou) (Image credit: Lionsgate) In Jean-Luc Godard’s tenth movie Pierrot le Fou, which is widely regarded as his masterpiece and the epitome of the French New Wave, frequent collaborators Jean-Paul Belmondo and Anna Karina team up as Ferdinand and Marianne respectively. Ferdinand, a husband dissatisfied with modern living, chooses to run away to the Mediterranean with Marianne, an ex-girlfriend on the run from government assassins. The two embark on a life of crime, a true 1960s version of Bonnie and Clyde, except with a lot more car explosions, gunfire, and breaking of the fourth wall. Together, they’re some of the best characters ever to emerge in French cinema, and they claim their spot in their own unusual ways. 14. Paul’s Grandfather (A Hard Day’s Night) (Image credit: United Artists) 13. Inspector Jacques Clouseau (The Pink Panther) (Image credit: United Artists) 12. HAL 9000 (2001: A Space Odyssey) (Image credit: MGM) 11. Corie Bratter (Barefoot in the Park) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) In Gene Saks’ uproarious movie version of Neil Simon’s stage play, Jane Fonda plays vivacious and passionate Corey, newlywed wife to conservative-minded lawyer Paul (Robert Redford). While Paul keeps his feet to the ground, Corey does all she can to make their marriage feel heavenly, even when a hole in their glass roof makes that too literal for comfort. Sexy and sensational, Corie and indeed Barefoot in the Park as a whole is a movie sometimes overlooked and underestimated in the canon of ‘60s movies. But it’s one of the most buoyant comedies of the decade, and Fonda’s boundless appeal as Corie makes the movie a dream. 10. Ben (Night of the Living Dead) (Image credit: Janus Films) In George Romero’s foundational zombie horror movie Night of the Living Dead, actor Duane Jones stars as Ben, a stranger who becomes the de facto leader of a group of people in rural Pennsylvania on the night the undead learn to walk among the living. While audiences learn precious little about who Ben really is before the movie, he still shines as the prototype for future survival horror protagonists. Night of the Dead was revolutionary for its time, and in some ways still is, for casting a Black male actor like Jones as its primary lead. His presence stands in defiance to conventional wisdom about how movies sell, what stories Black men can anchor, and how its chilling ending shows how our prejudices make us blind to our real enemies. 9. Guido Anselmi (8 ½) (Image credit: Janus Films) As a stand-in for director Frederico Fellini, Marcello Mastroianni’s portrayal of a filmmaker suffering a creative dry spell allows his celebrated movie 8 ½ to take on a significant air of self-reflection. (The title, too, is an explicit nod to Fellini’s career, referencing his eight previous movies.) However, Fellini looks nothing like his projected alter ego: Guido Anselmi, a masculine artist with silver hair who hides his smoldering eyes behind expensive sunglasses. Never before have tortured visionary souls looked so stylish, and Guido Anselmi is their paragon. 8. Holly Golightly (Breakfast at Tiffany’s) (Image credit: Paramount Pictures) Blake Edwards’ film version of Breakfast at Tiffany’s makes a few critical tweaks to the character of Holly Golightly from Truman Capote’s original novel. But the sheer luminescence of the one and only Audrey Hepburn allows Holly to feel dimensional and complex despite her chic exterior. Holly is not only a style icon embodying metropolitan mod fashion of the ‘60s, she is also a dreamlike figurine, an entity who could only be created in the sealed environments of a Hollywood rom-com yet still feel alive enough to step out of the screen. She’s beautiful and sophisticated, yet never too good for a hearty laugh. That she’s as troubled as she is lonely adds to her appeal. Even the fashion magazines are prone to having wrinkles. 7. Nana (Vivre sa vie) (Image credit: Janus Films) 6. Norman Bates (Psycho) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) Psycho is not just one of the most influential horror movies of all time, its antagonist Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins) is one of the most pivotal characters in film history. You can teach an entire college course on what Norman Bates represents in the areas of psychology and gender studies, not to mention how horror and suspense movies rely on narrative twists to keep audiences guessing like Psycho did. But above all else, it’s Anthony Perkins who imbued Norman Bates with eerie textures, inhabiting him less like an actor playing a role and more like a wolf taking on a disguise. There’s something behind that smile of his, and none of it is good. 5. Dr. John Wade Prentice and Christina Drayton (Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner) (Image credit: Columbia Pictures) In a way, there’s nothing remarkable about Dr. John Prentice and Christine Drayton. They’re yuppies in love, so easy to imagine in matching Mickey and Minnie t-shirts at Disneyland or rave about some dull bed and breakfast. But Stanley Kramer’s Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner was released in 1967, when miscegenation was still illegal in many parts of the United States. So this pleasant couple, a Black male doctor (the legendary Sidney Poitier) and the young white daughter (Katharine Hepburn) of wealthy white liberals, are in fact radical characters, less as people than what they represent: How love can and will transcend racial backgrounds. Being a lighthearted rom-com that unambiguously grapples with racism through its gorgeous couple makes Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner infinitely more important, and more consequential, than its good looks imply. 4. Sanjuro (Yojimbo and Sanjuro) (Image credit: Toho) 3. The Man with No Name (The Dollars Trilogy) (Image credit: MGM) 2. James Bond (The 007 Series) (Image credit: MGM) His name is Bond… James Bond. Originating as the problematic spy of Ian Fleming’s literary works, it was Sean Connery who forever shaped our impression and subsequent expectations of James Bond for decades to come. He’s handsome, he’s charismatic, he’s a bit too handsy for modern tastes. But he’s Bond, a man of action and a man of mystery that generations will always aspire to emulate. 1. Atticus Finch (To Kill a Mockingbird) (Image credit: Universal Pictures) It takes more than knowing to do the right thing. You have to knowhowto do the right thing, to stand up for it and argue for it. Even when the people around you stare daggers into your own eyes to say otherwise. In Robert Mulligan’s film version of Harper Lee’s classic novel, Gregory Peck breathes life into model lawyer Atticus Finch, who argues on behalf of an innocent Black man accused of raping a young white woman in segregated Alabama. (To Kill a Mockingbird was released a full two years before the Civil Rights Act of 1964 struck down segregation as unlawful.) It is popular legend that Atticus Finch has been an inconvenient role model among idealistic lawyers. But that doesn’t negate Atticus’ power as a character, instructive in his morals and a north star for all of us to know that right and wrong isn’t a simple matter of what everyone else thinks it is. Atticus Finch is not just one of the best movie characters of the 1960s – he’s one of the best to have ever been created.
