In 1957, Andy Griffith made his film debut in the movie, A Face in the Crowd. From here he followed up his film acting work with appearances in movies such as No Time for Sergeants, Onionhead, and The Second Time Around.
To begin with, his on-screen roles in movies were small parts, but soon his star status began to grow as audiences took the actor to their hearts. This (along with a very successful TV career) increased his presence on the big screen, and propelled his career toward the icon he would eventually become.
