The name order is not the exact same as the picture but most probably recognize the names and surely, over half of the names are very recognizable. Picked this up on twitter. I'm not sure if polls have 7 spaces.

As their movie character, I thought James Coburn was pretty slick with that knife.

Lots of scenes from the movie at youtube.

The only actor approaching Steve McQueen's kind of cool is Clint Eastwood, and Clint wasn't in the movie.

Bronson barely beats out Coburn who was great in Cross of Iron.

Yul Brenner or James Coburn, can't decide.

Sadly, all these fine actors are no longer with us.  Most of today's stars couldn't hold a candle to these guys. 

I guess if I have to choose, it would be Yul Brynner.
