knnhon Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I always thought he had the most fun making 2 movie CLASSICS: Mr. Capra's, "Lady for a Day"-1933; ad, "Golddiggers of 1933"-1933. He had such a SHORT life, does anyone know more details than what is posted on 'IMDB'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1968B2 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 As a woman, for me, the man depicts "slime." "Sleaze." I mean this in a very deliberate way, I think he knew it, and gave it well. When he's alone w/some poor girl, I know I should leave the room, but somehow I'm strangely compelled, like some weird '50s b/w. And then I wish I'd left the room. "Smarmy," that's good too. Has it in spades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VP19 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Warren William is a splendid actor representing the pre-Code sensibility. The 1990s pre-Code revival and books like Mick LaSalle's "Dangerous Men" helped re-establish him, sort of the male equivalent of Norma Shearer.

markbeckuaf Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Warren William is my main man!!! Such the wolf and cad of the pre-code era, he rocked the house! He also was pretty cool in a B-series, as the "Lone Wolf"--appropriate for him! And he also played a small role in Universal's 1941 THE WOLF MAN--another appropriate film for this dude to be in! I loved him in the Perry Mason series as well! Pre-code never saw a more...ahem...hungry fella! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
