Abstract

Tall, handsome, and with a powerful physique, American actor Victor John Mature (1913–1999), affectionately tagged that “Beautiful Hunk of Man,” embodied the essence of maleness and reigned as Hollywood’s beefcake king. He played in historical biopics, circus tales, oriental adventures, crime stories, westerns, Christian-Roman cinema, and biblical epics.
