It is certainly not a recent trend that great actors devote themselves to a directing career. This trend has existed since the dawn of cinema, with silent films, and moreover, it is something that happens everywhere in the world, not just in the huge Hollywood show business.

Having been great actors, however, is no guarantee of becoming great directors. There are some exceptional cases, with actors who have become perhaps even greater behind the camera (Clint Eastwood, John Cassavetes, Charles Laughton, Charlie Chaplin), but not all of them make it to the Olympus in both roles.

Perhaps, however, the role of director is not immediately apparent to the general public, so it may have escaped the notice that these 10 great actors are also great directors.

The American Film Institute has compiled a ranking of the top 100 movie stars, both male and female.

To make the ranking, AFI adopted a chronological criterion: the debut on the movie screen had to be no later than 1950 or, if it was, the actor's career had to be ended permanently, due to his or her death.

The ranking therefore includes the best stars of the last century, who made the history of 20th century cinema.

Here are 10 resounding flops in the history of cinema.

Coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world and it is in second place in the ranking of the most traded and requested goods on the market, behind only oil.

But which are the countries where you drink the most coffee? The International Coffee Organization collected the data and created the ranking, which takes into account the kg of coffee consumed per person.

Sometimes a 'fake' love, written in a script, can go beyond the plot of a film or TV series and become real: many times, in fact, couples called to work together to act have later fallen in love in real life.

Sometimes these love stories ended badly, sometimes not, and these couples continue to endure even years after their first meeting on set.

We present some historical couples who formed first on the scripts and then on the film set and beyond.
