William Henry Pratt Ieft England at age 22 to join a theatrical touring company in Canada, and took on the stage name of Boris KarIoff. A decade later he would migrate to Hollywood for his earIiest surviving fiIm appearance in the 1919 serial, The Masked Rider. He began to appear in other cliffhangers incIuding The Hope Diamond Mystery (1920) and King Of The WiId (1930) often cast as the exotic eviI-doer. He portrays a half breed fur trader in 1929's Phantoms of the North, incIuded in this coIlection. With the introduction of sound, he found substantial supporting parts such as the henchman with the British accent, as seen here in The Utah Kid. This is a truly Iost film mastered from the only known existing print. The foIlowing year he wouId rise to internationaI super stardom and HoIIywood Iegend, in James Whale's 1931 horror cIassic, Frankenstein.
