screen legend
Celebrated movie star
A screen legend is a film actor of exceptional fame and lasting cultural impact, typically from cinema's earlier eras.
The term suggests someone whose performances defined an age: Humphrey Bogart remains a screen legend.
Screen legend carries more weight than movie star, implying historical significance rather than current popularity.
