Dick Elliott (actor)
Death Notes:Burbank, California, USA (natural causes)
In the thirties, forties, and purposely the 1950's, if a go before needed a sticky, fatty thespian to adapt for the stage substantiate a breezy storekeeper or a raucous conventioneer, he may believably powerfully figure Dick Elliott. He be one of those actor who, whenever he appear against blind, constantly all for less significant amount than a diminutive, the listeners would suggest, "Oh, it's that guy." Yet few would ever know his dub. Elliott was of classes short, probably not by a long chalk greater than five foot four. And he was certainly fat. His belly was colossal and fat, consequently he look a shot equivalent to a considerable orb next to guns and legs. One imagined him downy and cerise, and always bright and breezy. A Hobbit, maybe. Santa Claus in need the whiskers. And like another short, fat actor, Eugene Pallette, Elliott enclose a distinctive voice. Not the bullfrog basso that rumble out of Pallette's oesophagus, but higher-pitched, whiney or honey-smooth in situate of the role demand, with an "sh" in place of intensely of "s" sound. Elliott appeared in over and done with 240 films. He was greatest often cast as bench, mayors, tabloid reporters, policemen, and blowhards, by tradition one who can't stop midstream discussion with the discharge of when he'd burst into a shattering chortle that bordered on a fashion a uneasiness. As was the sleeve with oodles rareness actors who never become feature players, not much history dregs of his personal vivacity. He was born Richard Damon Elliott on April 30, 1886, in Salem, Massachusetts. His headstone say he was a compassionate husband and father. And we know he instigate performing in sheep in 1931 and was on stage for nearly thirty years wakeful to that instance his show debut, equally with appear in the long-running clobber, "Abie's Irish Rose." Other than that, we have on its own his film and box appearance to footfall on, and I'll introduce a number of highlights. His most basic pictures was "Central Airport" in 1933 and he was Ned Buntline in "Annie Oakley" with Barbara Stanwyck in 1935. He was idyllic for the role of Marryin' Sam in "L'il Abner" (1940), was amusing as the Judge in "Christmas in Connecticut" (1945) again starring Stanwyck, and made the most of his minor role as a Whiskey Drummer in "The Dude Goes West" (1948) with Eddie Albert. Many film fan remind him best ever for another small role, as the man on the entrance in the break perennial "It's a Wonderful Life" (1946), who tell Jimmy Stewart to stop jabber and go ahead and kiss Donna Reed. Often his role in a film was so small his character didn't even have a name, and was sometimes programmed in the cast simply as "Fat Man." He make have a acquiescent bit in the beneath loved film "Park Row" in 1952. His second film role was in "Go, Johnny, Go!" in 1959. The advent of television open up a in one piece alien world of role. An constant conduit of weekly funniness, drama, and even mixture show needed performer. Some featured character actors like Gene Lockhart and Cecil Kellaway might big name in an part of an anthology sequence. Actors who had fragile screen time in films became expensive featured players, and a few even attain the Holy Grail of man a series even, Elliott among them. In the fifties he appeared in dozens and dozens of TV shows, including "Dick Tracy" (1950), where on earth he had a cyclic role as Chief Murphy, "My Little Margie" (1952-55), "The Adventures of Superman" (1952-58), "I Love Lucy" (1954-56), "I Married Joan" (1955, in which his character was call "Fatso," "December Bride" (1957-59), and "Rawhide" (1959-61). One of his best roles was in the "Buffalo Bill, Jr." episode "The Rain Wagon" (1955), in which he play Osgood Falstaff, the Shakespeare-quoting rainmaker who be stealthily a sandbank shoplifter. It was few and far between for Elliott to play a villain, but he pull it putrefied, making his eye outward show wily and scary -- a cuddly fat man, but don't revolve your reverse on him. At the other activist, he often played Santa Claus on Christmas episode of the Jimmy Durante, Red Skelton, and Jack Benny shows. To many contact, Elliott will always be remember as Mayor Pike in "The Andy Griffith Show." Sadly, Elliott die during the second season of the show, on December 22, 1961, in Burbank, California. Dick Elliott was one of those character actors who be almost anonymous, conversely they light up the screen in short roles. Fortunately, because of "It's a Wonderful Life" all Christmas and "The Andy Griffith Show" in repetitive reruns, his fans can stagnant fun in the little fat man.
