Eddie Laughton (20 June 190321 March 1952) was a British film actor. Laughton appeared in over 200 films between 1935 and 1952. ==Career== Laughton left his native Britain to pursue a Hollywood film career. He started in vaudeville, and, according to a biography of Larry Fine of the Three Stooges, managed a vaudeville theatre where Fine once played. The pencil-mustached Laughton was placed under contract by Columbia Pictures in 1935. He appeared in many Columbia features, short subjects and serials throughout the 1930s and 1940s. Modern viewers will remember Laughton for his role as "Percy Pomeroy, convict 41144" in the Stooge comedies ''So Long Mr. Chumps'' and ''Beer Barrel Polecats'', or as the happy drunk in ''Loco Boy Makes Good''. Laughton was an excellent utility player, useful in good-guy and bad-guy roles alike. (He and Columbia actor John Tyrrell shared many scenes.) Laughton was also a convincing dialect comedian, playing a French nobleman in Buster Keaton's ''She's Oil Mine'', and an English big-game hunter plastered with pies in the Stooges' ''In the Sweet Pie and Pie''.〔(imdb.com )〕 In addition to his roles in the Stooge shorts, Laughton joined the team during their personal appearances between filming schedules, acting as their straight man.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eddie Laughton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
