William Henry Crane (1845-1928), American actor, was born on 30 April 1845, in Leicester, Massachusetts, and made his first appearance at Utica, New York, in Donizetti's Daughter of the Regiment in 1863. Later he had a great success as Le Blanc the Notary, in the burlesque Evangelie (1873). He made his first hit in the legitimate drama with Stuart Robson (1836-1903), in The Comedy of Errors and other Shakespearian plays, and in The Henrietta (1881) by Bronson Howard (1842-1908). This partnership lasted for twelve years, and subsequently Crane appeared in various eccentric character parts in such plays as The Senator and David Harum. In 1904 he turned to more serious work and played Isidore Izard in Business is business, an adaptation from Octave Mirbeau's Les Affaires sont les Affaires.
In his 70s, Crane appeared in a number of films, notably in a reprise of his role in David Harum (1915). He also appeared in MGM's Three Wise Fools, a film recently revived on Turner Classic Movies and is available on home video/dvd. He died 7 March 1928 at the Hotel Hollywood.

Tullio Carminati (1895-1971) was an Italian stage and film actor with a longstanding career from the 1910s to the 1960s, playing in Italian, German, American, British and French films and on Italian, American and British stages.
Born count Tullio Carminati de Brambilla at Zara (then Austrian-Hungarian Empire, now Croatia), Carminati ran away from school at the age of 16 and joined a theatre company which soon ran into financial trouble. Disinherited and chased from the house by his father he had to start working as actor. He managed to get employed by Alfredo de Sanctis in 1907, during a Dalmatian tour by the latter. In 1909 Carminati arrived in Rome. By mediation of actor Gustavo Serena, Carminati met Ferruccio Garavaglia, first actor of the Compagnia stabile romana, which resided at the Teatro Argentina and which accepted him as extra. The company director Ettore Paladini was not convinced of Carminati’s talent and restricted him to modest parts. In 1910 actress Emma Gramatica discovered him, while giving visiting performances at the Argentina. She admired his elegance and spontaneity and convinced the management to give him parts of young actor. Under this flag, star actor and director Ermete Novelli noticed him in La fiamma and hired him in 1912 for his own company. Novelli became his master who showed him to give a balanced and natural performance and the taste for simple and touching solutions. Under the aegis of Novelli, Carminati transformed in a modern, refined and sensible actor, free of affectations. Soon, however, Marco Praga hired Carminati for his Compagnia stable of the Teatro Manzoni in Milan and him play in various modern plays by D’Annunzio, Niccodemi, Praga himself, and others. During a tour in South America and back in Milan the focus was more on the lighter repertory.
In 1914 Carminati debuted in Italian silent cinema, first in La mia vita per la tua, starring Maria Carmi and directed by Emilio Ghione. When the Manzoni company stopped in 1915, Carminati made a film acting contract with the Ambrosio company of Turin, playing in the propaganda film Romanticismo (Carlo Campogalliani), in which he was the Italian aristocrat fighting the Austrians during the Risorgimento. His co-actress was Elena Makowska who had her breakthrough in this film. Carminati would be paired with Makowska in several Ambrosio films, as in Val d’Olivi (Eleuterio Rodolfi 1915), again set at the Risorgimento, though Carminati also did a few films together with actress Madeline Céliat, such as Davanti alla legge (Carlo Campogalliani 1916). In 1916 Carminati joined the theatre company of Lyda Borelli and Ugo Piperno, playing in Nozze dei Centauri, La donna nuda and Amanti, but soon he left again and focused on film acting, with titles like Tramonto triste (Giuseppe Pinto 1916) and L’articolo IV (Gennaro Righelli 1917). At the company Tiber Film, Carminati played in a series of films directed by Augusto Genina in 1916-1918: Kalida – la storia una mummia (1917) and Il trono e la seggiola (1918) and for the company Monopol Film he acted in the successful films Il presagio (1916) and La menzogna (1916), both with Vera Vergani and directed by Genina.
By now Carminati had become a real film star, his face and shape endlessly reproduced on postcards, posters and photos, in particular his kiss from Il presagio. Between 1917 and 1922 Carminati acted in twelve star vehicles with the Italian diva Hesperia, such as L’aigrette ( 1917), La donna dei cuori (1917) and La donna abbondanata ( 1917), all directed by her husband Baldassarre Negroni. In the late 1910s Carminati also played in films with diva Maria Jacobini: L'articolo IV (Gennaro Rigghelli 1917) and La via più lunga (Mario Caserini 1918), and a few with Gemma and Bianca Stagno Bellincioni. In 1919 Carminati founded his own film company, Carminati-Film, and produced five films with it in 1919-1920, all directed by Enrico Roma, but in the end he was forced to dissolve the company. All in all Carminati played in some 37 Italian silent between 1914 and 1924. After some failures in film Carminati was forced to go back to the stage. There he became extremely successful with his own company, together with Alda Borelli, sister of Lyda, in 1920-1921. Carminati’s plays were known for their eye for detail, realism and style and their lack of frivolous overdoing. He played himself elegant and refined characters, full of spirit and wit. On the other hand, his part as Armand in Dumas’ La dame aux camélias was considered too cold. When Borelli left the company in 1921, Carminati became director and first actor of Eleonora Duse’s company, realizing three dramas of which he played only in one, Cosí sia by T. Gallarati Scotti. United Artists producer Joseph Schenck saw him playing and offered him to come to the US to play in a series of films, but after the failure of Carminati-Film and because of his workload at the theatre, Carminati had his doubts. When Duse went to tour at the US instead, Carminati joined the theatre company of Lucio d’Ambra and Mario Fumagalli, playing in plays by Pirandello, Bracco and Benelli. Carminati did few films in those years; one was Mensch gegen Mensch (1923), shot in Germany by Hanns Steinhoff and with Carminati in the lead. Between 1924 and 1925 Carminati did a series of plays with Italia Almirante Manzini and Lina Tricerri, among which the very successful comedy Le nozze di Leporello by Luigi Almirante.
Fed up with the decline of the Italian film world and deluded by the collaboration with Manzini and Tricerri, Carminati went to the US in 1925, without any clear prospects and without speaking the language properly. After some time he managed to get a contract with United Artists and played a detective in his first American film: The Bat (Roland West 1926), with Jack Pickford and Louise Fazenda. This was followed by several parts as ‘lover’ in The Duchess of Buffalo (Sydney Franklin 1926) with Constance Talmadge, and Stage Madness (Victor Schertzinger 1927) with Virginia Valli. He then switched to Paramount where he reached fame with his part in Honeymoon Hate (Luther Reed 1927) with Florence Vidor. He also acted in the Pola Negri vehicle Three Sinners (Rowland V. Lee). With the advent of sound cinema, Carminati moved to New York and joined the company of Basil Rathbone. Critics liked his elegance, openness and sobriety, while audiences liked his foreign accent and Latin lover imago. His American stage career was confirmed with Strictly Dishonorable by Preston Sturges, which ran for two years in 1930-1931 in some 725 shows. The continuous success of this play reopened the doors of Hollywood for Carminati, who until 1940 continued to play in various films, like Gallant Lady (Gregory LaCava 1933), and - after a successful British tour in 1934 - Moulin Rouge (Sydney Lanfield 1934) with Constance Bennett and One Night of Love (Schertzinger 1934) with Grace Moore. The same year Carminati played the male lead in the Franco-Italian production Marcia nuziale/The Wedding March (Mario Bonnard 1935), starring Kiki Palmer. After another Broadway show, he acted in the romantic comedies Let’s Live Tonight (Schertzinger 1935) with Lilian Harvey and Paris in Spring (Lew Milestone 1935) with Mary Ellis, establishing him as the mature Don Giovanni. In 1936 he acted in two British films by Herbert Wilcox: London Melody (1936) and The Three Maxims (1936), both starring Anna Neagle. In 1938, after a stay in Italy, he played on the New York stage again in By Candle Light, and in 1939 in the comedy Stephen Jumel. In 1940 he played in Hollywood in Sunset in Vienna (Norman Walker 1940), with Lilli Palmer, and in Safari (Edward H. Griffith), with Douglas Fairbanks jr. and Madeleine Carroll.
On December 1941, a few days after the US declared war to Italy, Carminati was imprisoned and sent back to Italy in May 1942, because of anti-American activities. In the following year he played his first Italian film role again in La via torna (Pier Luigi Faraldo 1943) and he joined the company of Elsa de Giorgi and Elena Zareschi, performing in various plays before and after the liberation there. In 1946 he joined the company Morelli-Stoppa, for which he played in Antigone (Anouilh), directed by Luchino Visconti. After a stage absence of several years, Carminati returned in 1953 playing a.o. in Il Ferro by D’Annunzio. From the late 1940s until 1963, Carminati acted in various films in Italy, Spain, France and he US. Memorable titles are La Chartreuse de Parme/The Charterhouse at Parma (Christian Jaque 1948), La madonnina d’oro/The Golden Madonna (Ladislao Vajda 1949), La Beauté du diable/Beauty and the Devil (René Clair 1950), Roman Holiday (William Wyler 1953), Giovanna d’Arco al rogo/Joan of Arc at the Stake (Roberto Rossellini 1954), War and Peace (King Vidor 1956), El Cid (Anthony Mann 1961), and The Cardinal (Otto Preminger 1963). Tullio Carminati died in 1971 because of a brain hemorrhage.

Its one of the difficult thing to beg a role in a Bollywood movie. We have seen a boom of biopic these days. Recently Sanju is a big hit on the box office and earlier MS Dhoni biopic was also amazing.
