JACK LA RUE
Black and white publicity photograph of LaRue in a suit sitting
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To my good/friend Davidl/my very
best/always/Jack La Rue". B/w, 8x10. Actor Jack La Rue (1900-1984),
who was also known as Gaspare Biondolillo, had been brought to Hollywood in
1930 by Howard Hawks to co-star opposite Paul Muni in Scarface, but Hawks
changed his mind and cast the then unknown George Raft in place of La Rue.
La Rue, who made his film debut in 1930, would appear in scores of films over
the next five decades. Usually cast in villainous roles, such as a gangster
or a thug, but equally menacing in period pictures, such as Westerns (To
the Last Man, 1933; Wild Horse Stampede, 1943) and swashbucklers
(The Sea Hawk, 1940; The Spanish Main, 1945), La Rue become one
of film's most recognized "heavies". His other film credits include A
Farewell to Arms (1932), The Story of Temple Drake (1933),
42nd Street (1933), Captain's Courageous (1937), Road to
Utopia (1946), No Orchids for Miss Blandish (1948), 40
Pounds of Trouble (1963), Robin and the Seven Hoods (1964) and Won
Ton Ton, The Dog Who Saved Hollywood (1976, his last film). La Rue also
appeared on television in the 1950s and 1960s, appearing as a guest star on such
series as Cheyenne (1957), Perry Mason (1965) and Love,
American Style (1969). Defects from original negative have reproduced on
