Quite so, well done.

Irina Brook is now a very successful theatre director in Paris. Hardly surprising really considering her background.

The director's wife....and when I said Donald Calthrop was still at school when this was made, I may have been wrong, but only by a year or two at most, I wasn't joking...don't let the picture quality fool you, it's over 100 years old. That's not a shadow from lamplight, but sun on an open-air stage.

I haven't got a clue? Mrs Bat had a look and asked why I had mentioned Mr Calthrop. She was most upset to discover that 'her man' from Shooting Stars was involved in such a scandal!

This would be "Mary Jane's Mishap" - an extract of which I have just watched on a YouTube clip.

Hugo is right .... here's the link.

YouTube - Mary Jane's Mishap (1903)

It's a pity poor old Donald Calthrop didn't see it .... he would have been more careful around fires!

"And then there was the case of Donald Calthrop, the villain in Hitchcock's Blackmail, and one of the period's most gifted character actors. One chilly night in 1930, he invited a would-be starlet, Nita Foy, to visit him in his rooms. Her dress brushed against a bar on his electric fire, and she was burned to death."
