Quiz

Etienne Girardot

Modifica
  • Girardot's body rests in an unmarked grave at Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles, CA.
  • One of the tiniest of Hollywood's character actors, Etienne appears as the office manager in John Ford's "The Whole Town's Talking" where he can be seen in the corridor of police headquarters talking to Donald Meek, another extremely diminutive character actor. Meek appears to be even taller than Etienne.
  • The son of an artist, on stage from the age of seventeen at the Haymarket Theatre in London. In the U.S. from 1893, first theatrical performance as Lord Babberly in "Charley's Aunt".
  • Survived by his widow, Dr. Violetta Shelton, an eye, ear, nose and throat specialist; and a sister in England.
  • Appeared in no less than 26 Broadway shows from 1900-1932, including the comedy, Twentieth Century (1932).
  • The son of French painter Ernest Gustave Girardot, he studied at an art school, but left at age seventeen to go on stage.
  • In films from 1912 with Vitagraph in Brooklyn.
  • Diminutive character actor in Hollywood films through the 1930's, often portraying pestering types.
  • Among his film roles were the harmless lunatic who fancies himself a millionaire in the 1934 screwball comedy Twentieth Century, with John Barrymore and Carole Lombard, and the harassed coroner in three murder mysteries starring William Powell as detective Philo Vance.
  • In 1933 he scored a personal success as balmy self-styled millionaire Mr. Clark in Hecht and MacArthur's Twentieth Century. It was this role that brought Girardot back to movies on a full-time basis, where he remained until his death in 1939.
  • He was a diminutive stage and film actor of Anglo-French parentage born in London, England.
  • He was a success, with numerous Broadway shows to his credit, including the 1893 production of Charley's Aunt, in which he played Lord Fancourt Babberley for three years.
  • He also worked in film, both silents and talkies, debuting in 1911 in Intrepid Davy.
  • He went to America in 1893, where he continued his career.
  • Having played in the provinces, he made his debut on the London stage at the Haymarket Theatre.
