paddyfitz:Happy Birthday William Henry Pratt aka Boris Karloff (23 November 1887 - 2 February 1969) One always hears of actors complaining of being typed– if he’s young, he’s typed as a juvenile; if he’s handsome, he’s typed as a leading man. I was lucky. Whereas bootmakers have the spend millions to establish a trademark I was handed a trademark free of charge. When an actor gets in a position to select his own roles, he’s in big trouble, for he never knows what he can do best. I’m sure I’d be damn good as Little Lord Fauntleroy, but who would pay ten cents to see it? -- source link
