She died at the age of 59 after falling from the window of her flat in London, while she was under therapy for depression. [[Category:Best Actor Oscar Nominee+Laughton, Charles]]. After climbing to stardom towards the end of 1950s, she performed in more than 75 films between 1959 and 1991. He is interred in the Forest Lawn, Hollywood Hills Cemetery in Los Angeles, California. Laughton never had another chance to direct his own movies. This movie is often cited among critics as one of the best movies of the 1950s; unfortunately, it was a box-office flop. Laughton had one stint as a director, and the result was the legendary The Night of the Hunter (1955), starring Robert Mitchum and Lillian Gish. In 1950, he took American citizenship. Lanchester appeared opposite him in several films, including Rembrandt (1936). Despite his homosexual inclinations, he had a long and resilient marriage to the British-born American actress, Elsa Lanchester, possibly because she had her own such inclinations according to contemporary gossip. He also received an Academy Award nomination for his role in Witness for the Prosecution (1957). In 1937 he was to have starred in an ill-fated film version of the book, I, Claudius, by Robert Graves, which was abandoned only part-way into filming. Later films included The Barretts of Wimpole Street (1934), Mutiny on the Bounty (1935), and The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939). His association with the director, Alexander Korda, began with The Private Life of Henry VIII (loosely based on the life of King Henry VIII of England), for which Laughton won an Academy Award. Despite not having the looks for a romantic lead, he impressed audiences with his talent and played many classical roles before making his film debut in 1932. Born in 1899 at Scarborough, Yorkshire, Laughton at first went into the family business, not making his first stage appearance until 1926. Charles Laughton (July 1, 1899 - December 15, 1962) was a British-born American stage and film actor. |
