Brian Abbot
Brian Abbot (1911–1936), real name George Rikard Bell, was an Australian actor best known for playing the male lead in ''Orphan of the Wilderness'' (1936) and the circumstances of his death.
==Biography==
Abbot ran away from school at aged 15 and worked as a jackeroo.〔('STRAY DOG that is now Australian RIN TIN TIN.' ''The Australian Women's Weekly'' 25 Jul 1936: 36 ) accessed 15 Dec 2011〕 He had a great love of sailing and originally wanted to be a sailor for a career, but worked on two vessels which later sunk, TSS ''Kanowna'' and SS ''Christina Frazer''.〔(''Christina Frazer'' wreck report )〕 In the words of a later newspaper profile, "As Mr. Abbot didn't believe in for the third time to prove that fate was against him he promptly decided that there were other adventurous jobs to be had which didn't carry the risk of drowning."〔'Stage and Screen Personalities', ''The Sydney Morning Herald'', Tuesday 14 July 1936, p9〕 He subsequently turned to acting, taking the stage name of Brian Abbot.
Abbot played a small role in ''Thoroughbred'' (1936) which led to him being cast by Ken G. Hall to play the lead in ''Orphan of the Wilderness'' (1936), although Hall later felt the actor's inexperience was evident in the final film.〔Ken G. Hall, ''Directed by Ken G. Hall'', Lansdowne Press, 1977 p109〕
