who was better?

I liked Gary Cooper, but he was not as popular as Jimmy Stewart. Stewart talked funny. Cooper had more range, though his Roarke in Atlas Shrugged was sad.

they played similar characters.

Stewart was a much better actor with greater range. Cooper could be wooden at times although I usually enjoy watching him.

I think Jimmy Stewart was a better actor.

Stewart was a better actor, but Cooper was much hotter!

At least, when he was young. He was a stunner in his 20s and 30s, I'd post pics if I weren't on my phone.
