King Lear (III.iv): King Lear: Louis Calhern. 1956.
This image appears to be a deft use of genuine age to characterize Lear, a role which he played successfully in 1950. He also succeeded in his portrayal of the title role in Joseph L. Mankiewicz's film Julius Caesar in 1953 (adapted from Shakespeare's play). He appeared in more than forty films. Vandamm Studio, New York, N. Y. King Lear: Louis Calhern.
