Richard Arlen (born Sylvanus
Richard Mattimore) USA
1899-1976
silent screen actor
who made the transition to
“talkies”
and starred in “Wings” in 1927,
the first motion picture
to win an Academy Award
(...)
Five years
after he had joined
Paramount
Pictures,
the 26-year-old Richard Arlen
won the coveted role
of a young World War I aviator,
which he had himself been,
in
“Wings,”
co-starring Clara Bow,
Buddy
Rogers
and another young star,
Gary
Cooper.
While he was to make
about 250
movies,
the 1927 film, regarded as
the last of the silent
spectaculars
about World War I,
remained
a high point of his
career.

leslie-howard-found-footage
Hans Walter Conrad Veidt
GER / UK / USA 1893-1943
German actor
best remembered
for his roles in
films
such as
Different from the Others
(1919),
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
(1920),
and The Man who Laughs
(1928).
After a successful career
in German silent films,
where he was one
of the best-paid stars of UFA,
he and his new Jewish wife
Ilona
Prager
were forced to leave Germany
in
1933
after the Nazis came to power.
The couple settled in Britain,
where he took British citizenship
in 1939.
He appeared
in many British
films,
including The Thief of Bagdad
(1940),
before emigrating
to the United States around 1941,
which led to him being cast
as Major Strasser in Casablanca
(1942).
