screen luminary of the year, has no
middle name, according to his birth

middle name is "Versatility."

manages to make It fit like a glove.
His remarkable impersonation of
“Monte Cristo." in the famous film
of that name, made It seem that his
forte was that of dignity; It was to
be expected that he would appear
hereafter mainly as the- hero in the
most serious dramatic pictures that
could be found for him.
