John Loder

Dari Wikipedia, ensiklopedia gratis. John Loder (3 Januari 1898 - 26 Desember 1988) adalah seorang aktor Inggris-Amerika. Ia dilahirkan William John Muir Lowe di London. Ayahnya adalah Jenderal W. H. M. Lowe, perwira Inggris yang diserahkan kepada Patrick Pearse, pemimpin Kebangkitan Irlandia 1916 di Dublin. Baik Jenderal Lowe dan putranya hadir pada saat penyerahan Pearse. Ia menempuh pendidikan di Eton dan Royal Military College dan mengikuti ayahnya menjadi tentara, ditugaskan menjadi Hussar ke-15 sebagai letnan dua pada 17 Maret 1915, dan kemudian bertugas di Kampanye Gallipoli dan pernah dipenjarakan oleh Jerman. Setelah dibebaskan, ia tinggal di Jerman untuk menjalankan pabrik acar dan juga mulai mengembangkan minat dalam akting, muncul di beberapa film Jerman. Dia meninggalkan Jerman untuk kembali sebentar ke Inggris dan kemudian menuju ke Hollywood untuk mencoba peruntungannya di media baru, Talkies. Dia muncul di Rahasia Dokter, yang merupakan film pertama Paramount yang berbicara—meskipun kepribadiannya yang sangat Inggris tidak memenangkan hati Amerika saat ini dan dia kembali ke Inggris di mana dia ikut membintangi musikal mewah dan intrik seperti Kehidupan Cinta dan Tawa dan Sabotase. Dia adalah tokoh romantis pria dalam versi film asli Tambang Raja Salomo tahun 1937. Ketika Perang Dunia II dimulai, dia kembali ke Amerika di mana dia dengan mulus memulai karir dalam peran film 'B' yang biasanya memainkan karakter kelas atas dengan penampilan sesekali di Broadway. Dia kadang-kadang memainkan peran, meskipun peran pendukung, dalam film-film besar 'A' seperti How Green Was My Valley, di mana dia pada saat yang sama adalah salah satu saudara laki-laki Roddy McDowall dan putra Donald Crisp. Pada tahun 1947 ia menjadi warga negara Amerika, penampilan layar terakhirnya adalah pada tahun 1971. Pada tahun 1959 ia menjadi warga negara naturalisasi Inggris karena ia memiliki "kewarganegaraan yang tidak pasti".

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. John Loder (3 January 1898 — 26 December 1988) was a British-American actor. He was born William John Muir Lowe in London. His father was General W. H. M. Lowe, the British officer to whom Patrick Pearse, the leader of the Irish 1916 Rising in Dublin, surrendered. Both General Lowe and his son were present at the surrender of Pearse. He was educated at Eton and the Royal Military College and followed his father into the army, commissioned into 15th Hussars as a second lieutenant on 17 March 1915, and then serving in the Gallipoli Campaign and at one point being imprisoned by the Germans. Upon being released, he stayed in Germany to run a pickle factory and also began to develop an interest in acting, appearing in bit-parts in a few German films. He left Germany to briefly return to England and then headed to Hollywood to try his luck in the new medium, Talkies. He appeared in The Doctor's Secret, which was Paramount's first talking picture—though his very English persona didn't win America over at this time and he returned to England where he co-starred in plush musicals and intrigue such as Love Life and Laughter and Sabotage. He was the male romantic interest in the 1937 original film version of King Solomon's Mines. When World War II started he returned to America where he seamlessly coasted into a career in 'B' movie roles usually playing upper crust characters with occasional appearances on Broadway. He occasionally did play roles, though supporting ones, in major 'A' films such as How Green Was My Valley, in which he was at the same time one of Roddy McDowall's brothers and Donald Crisp's sons. In 1947 he became an American citizen, his last screen appearance was in 1971. In 1959 he became a naturalised citizen of the United Kingdom as he has been of "uncertain nationality".
