Edmund Breese (18 June 1871, Brooklyn, New York — 6 April 1936, New York, New York) was an American stage and film actor of the silent era. Long on the stage with a varied Broadway career before entering movies he appeared with James O'Neill in The Count of Monte Cristo (1893), The Lion and the Mouse (1906) with Richard Bennett, The Third Degree (1909) with Helen Ware, The Master Mind (1913) with Elliott Dexter, the popular World War I era play Why Marry? (1917) with Estelle Winwood & Nat C. Goodwin and So This Is London (1922) with Donald Gallaher. He appeared in 129 films between 1914 and 1935. He is best remembered as the advice giving German teacher at the beginning of the war movie All Quiet on the Western Front.

Matt McHugh (January 22, 1894 -- February 22, 1971) was an American film actor who appeared in over 200 films between 1931 and 1955, primarily in small parts.

June Gittelson (May 6, 1910 -- November 28, 1993) was an American film actress. She appeared in over 70 films between 1928 and 1945.

Lona Andre (March 2, 1915 -- September 18, 1992) was an American film actress.

Born Launa Anderson in Nashville, Tennessee, Andre attracted attention with her first films in Hollywood and was named as one of the WAMPAS Baby Stars of 1932. After winning the Paramount Panther Woman Contest, she was signed to a movie contract by Paramount Pictures. When Paramount did not renew her option, Andre worked as a freelance artist

During the 1930s she appeared frequently in films, usually as the lead in "B" pictures, and by the end of the decade had starred in more than fifty films.

Hattie McDaniel (June 10, 1895 -- October 25, 1952) was the first African-American actress to win an Academy Award. She won the award for Best Supporting Actress for her role of Mammy in Gone with the Wind (1939).

In addition to being an American film actress who acted in many films, McDaniel was also a professional singer-songwriter, comedian, stage actress, radio performer, and television star. Hattie McDaniel was in fact the first black woman to sing on the radio in America. Over the course of her career, McDaniel appeared in over 300 films, although she received screen credits for only about 80. She gained the respect of the African American show business community with her generosity, elegance, and charm.

McDaniel has two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Hollywood: one for her contributions to radio at 6933 Hollywood Boulevard, and one for motion pictures at 1719 Vine Street. In 1975, she was inducted into the Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame and in 2006 became the first black Oscar winner honored with a US postage stamp.

  • An enjoyable film. Miss Collyer's films are very rare and it is always a treat to see her. She is another good actress who just gave up for lack of good roles.

  • Great!

  • That was awesome
