About This Item
UK: Methuen Publishing Ltd, 1987. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Most actors are lucky to leave behind one memorable role. Charles Laughton's gift to the world- and to mimics - is unique. Not just one but three universally recognised creations; the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Henry VIII and Captain Bligh. These and glimpses of the complex actor behind them- live on, years after his death. The text block is lightly tanned with some spotting.
