The man behind the icon

» The earliest memory I have of Arnold Schwarzenegger was when he was already a Hollywood action superstar. Movies like The Terminator (1984) and Commando (1985) were big successes that came out at the perfect time when the action genre in Hollywood was switching from typical crime and car chase movies to muscular, Herculean male action heroes.
