My Take

What I love about Eugene Pallette is the arc of his career. He started as a lean leading man and ended as one of cinema's great rotund character actors, growling his way through more than 240 films across the silent and sound eras. That kind of reinvention takes humility and craft. Leading men come and go, but the gravelly-voiced supporting player who anchors a scene is the connective tissue of a movie. A Kansas kid who clawed his way to a Walk of Fame star deserves more remembering than he gets, and I'm glad to give him a little.

Overview

Eugene William Pallette (July 8, 1889 – September 3, 1954) was an American actor who worked in both the silent and sound eras, performing in more than 240 productions between 1913 and 1946. After an early career as a slender leading man, Pallette became a stout character actor.
