Silent Era People

Recommended Posts

What about Carla Laemmle? She appeared in Lon Chaney Sr. Phantom of the Opera, does she count as a Silent Era person? She just recently turned 101, I believe.

"Baby" Marie Osborne has died at the age of 99

I think she could've effectively removed the word 'baby' from her moniker about 90 years ago.

 

UK obit Baby Marie Osborne. congrats to Team USA/Asia Alliance and Win One For The Dead for picking her on this year's DDP.

Miriam Seegar will now be eternally silent!

 

Would be a 6th DDP hit in 5 days if the right obit comes up...

Make of this what you will...

 

The silent movie actress Eva von Berne died in 1930, according to most reports; however she has now died again - according to Alt Film Guide

von Berne actually died "after a short illness" on Nov. 9, 2010, in the Hungarian town of Hedervar
aged 100.

 

Should you doubt the word of a mere weblog Die Welt picked it up too.

Various sites are reporting that Russian/American screen writer Frederica Sagor Maas has died aged at the venerable age of 109.

 

Do you have examples? Links maybe? Something that proofs your interesting thesis?

 

:o Is my word not enough for you?

People on that thread, as well as Robert Young who contacted the family, are calling bullshit on this one...

 

Thomas!

 

Fill in the blanks:

 

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with ___, and the Word was ___.

 

Squid?

 

A nice article here about Frederica Sagor Maas who has just celebrated her 111th birthday...

 

Tovar, who wasn’t expecting Maas to be very responsive today, says she’s much more alert this year than last.

 

“She’s having an amazing moment of lucidity” ... “She’s wanting to say her goodbyes and saying who gets her books and everything. She doesn’t realize that all that stuff is already gone.”

She's a fairly big hit for those of us interested in foreign film, too, given the old girl appeared in such major French films as Renoir's "La Règle du jeu" and Truffaut's "Last Metro." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulette_Dubost

 

Another classic-era frog actress croaks.

Bad luck for one DDP team who picked her!

 

According to a recent IMDb update, Lelita Rosa (b. 1908) died back in 1980 aged just 71.... shit times!
