Morgan Freeman – Born in 1937, Million Dollar Baby

If theirs anyone on this list who can truly get away without a proper introduction, it has to be Morgan Freeman. Everyone from the previous generation to the present has probably seen one or two of his films. And this is certainly proof of his consistency in appearing in works of the highest quality.

We begin with “The Shawshank Redemption” because it provides such a raw portrayal of loss, friendship, resistance, and freedom. But of over 140 acting credits Freeman has managed to compile during his five-decade-long career, “Million Dollar Baby” would definitely land on the list of most memorable. We also saw him in the 2022 thriller, “Paradise Highway.”
