REMEMBERING BORIS KARLOFF ON HIS BIRTHDAY!

("FILE 770") THE LIFE OF BORIS KARLOFF, "THE MAN WHO MADE A MONSTER" (23 November 1887 – 2 February 1969)

Born November 23rd, 1887, Boris Karloff remains the tender definition and symbol of cinema's classic age of "Horror."

He was a gentle giant who charmed children of all ages, while thrilling their parents in beloved tales of classic terror. The wonderful Boris Karloff was born on November 23rd, 1887, and is the subject of a new, full length, screen documentary, written and produced by Ronald Maccloskey, entitled "Boris Karloff: The Man Behind The "Monster."

"Karloff, The Uncanny" became Frankenstein's "Monster" to generations of adoring movie goers but, at his core, was a cultured gentleman, loving father, and hard-working performer who co-created the legendary Screen Actors Guild in his quest for equal rights for actors all over the world.

His cinematic legacy is incalculable. William Henry Pratt was a cultured, lovely soul whose presence enriched the timeless fabric of motion pictures, television, radio, and the Broadway stage, and became the most enduringly beloved actor in the checkered history of classic "Horror Films." Here is my affectionate remembrance of this gentle giant ... the undisputed "King of Horror" ...the one and only Boris Karloff.
