Charlton Heston - aged 25 - as Mark Antony in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar independent (16 mm) film adaptation 1949-1950 (20 years before his well know Mark Antony - Julius Caesar directed by Stuart Burge - also available on Shakespeare Network).

The first film version of the play with sound, it was produced and directed by David Bradley using actors from the Chicago area. Heston, who had known Bradley since his youth, and who was establishing himself in television and theater in New York City, portrayed Mark Antony. He was the only paid cast member. Bradley himself played Brutus, and Harold Tasker had the title role. Bradley recruited drama students from his alma mater Northwestern University for bit parts and extras, one of whom was future star Jeffrey Hunter, who studied alongside Heston at Northwestern.
