He was one of Preston Sturges' stock company actors - in about 10 of 13 films directed by Sturges he appeared - his face you might know - though you might be not aware of his name - - today is his birthday:
Torben Meyer
* December 1, 1884 (Ć
rhus, Denmark)
I think he is best know as Werner Lampe in JUDGMENT IN NUREMBERG (1961)
------
He is turning 50 today - and he is one of my all-time crushes:
Jeremy Northam
*December 1, 1961 (Cambridge, UK)
-----
She is turning 40 today - an actress, who I adore and about whom I talked lately with one of my best friends:
Emily Mortimer
*December 1, 1971 (London, UK)
-----
He was sometimes a bit over the top - and though he had bit parts in so many classics - and in some he had even bigger parts.. I wasn't able to find a proper picture - so here you'll get a trailer for a film I haven't seen yet - but it'll give you at least his face..
William Tracy
*December 1, 1917 (Pittsburgh, USA)
† June 18, 1967 (Hollywood, USA)
Thank you all for listening!

The only one of those people I know is Jeremy Northam....the best possible Mr. Knightley!! And he and I were born the same year, so we have both hit that monumental big 5-0 this year!! But, I've heard that 50's the new 40, so we're both still on the cutting edge!!

Wow, we were just talking about Emily too. Talk about timing.
