Hay Petrie (16 July 1895 - 30 July 1948), born David Hay Petrie, was a Scottish actor noted for playing eccentric characters, among them Quilp in ''The Old Curiosity Shop'' (1935), the McLaggen in ''The Ghost Goes West'' (1935) and Uncle Pumblechook in ''Great Expectations'' (1946). Hay Petrie was born in Dundee, Angus, Scotland, where he went to St Andrew’s Academy. He later attended St Andrew’s University, where he first discovered the stage. In 1915 he joined the Royal Scots (Lothian Regiment) as a Second Lieutenant. After the war he studied with Rosina Filippi joining the Old Vic Company appearing as "Starveling" in ''A Midsummer Night’s Dream'' in 1920. In 1924 Albert de Courville brought Hay Petrie into Vaudeville with ''The Looking Glass'', in which he sang "Oh Shakespeare you’re the best of all but you can’t fill the fourteen shilling stall". His first film part was ''Many Waters'' in 1931. Hay Petrie struggled with alcoholism, but was much loved by audiences and players. He was never more at home than when he was playing parts from the classical theatre, and for many he was the Shakespearean Clown of the early 1920s. He died in London, aged 53. ==Filmography == * ''Suspense'' (1930) * ''Night Birds'' (1931) * ''Many Waters'' (1931) * ''The Lucky Number'' (1932) * ''Carmen'' (1932) * ''Help Yourself'' (1932) * ''The Wandering Jew'' (1933) * ''Red Wagon'' (1933) * ''The Private Life of Henry VIII'' (1933) as The King's Barber * ''Crime on the Hill'' (1933) * ''Matinee Idol'' (1933) * ''Colonel Blood'' (1934) * ''Blind Justice'' (1934) * ''The Queen's Affair'' (1934) * ''The Private Life of Don Juan'' (1934) * ''The Old Curiosity Shop'' (1934) * ''Nell Gwynn'' (1934) * ''Peg of Old Drury'' (1935) * ''The Loves of Madame Dubarry'' (1935) * ''Koenigsmark'' (1935) * ''Moscow Nights'' (1935) * ''The Ghost Goes West'' (1935) * ''Hearts of Humanity'' (1936) * ''Men of Yesterday'' (1936) * ''Invitation to the Waltz'' (1936) * ''Rembrandt'' (1936) * ''Forget Me Not'' (1936) * ''Treachery on the High Seas'' (1936) * ''Conquest of the Air'' (1936) * ''The House of the Spaniard'' (1936) * ''Secret Lives'' (1937) * ''Knight Without Armour'' (1937) * ''Keep Smiling'' (1938) * ''A Spot of Bother'' (1938) * ''Q Planes'' (1939) * ''The Spy in Black'' (1939) * ''The Four Feathers'' (1939) * ''Jamaica Inn'' (1939) * ''Inquest'' (1939) * ''21 Days'' (1940) * ''Crimes at the Dark House'' (1940) * ''Spy for a Day'' (1940) * ''Pastor Hall'' (1940) * ''Ten Days in Paris'' (1940) * ''Contraband'' (1940) * ''Convoy'' (1940) * ''The Thief of Bagdad'' (1940) * ''Freedom Radio'' (1941) * ''Quiet Wedding'' (1941) * ''Spellbound'' (1941) * ''The Ghost of St. Michael's'' (1941) * ''Turned Out Nice Again'' (1941) * ''Cottage to Let'' (1941) * ''Rush Hour'' (1941) * ''This Was Paris'' (1942) * ''Those Kids from Town'' (1942) * ''One of Our Aircraft Is Missing'' (1942) * ''They Flew Alone'' (1942) * ''Hard Steel'' (1942) * ''Sabotage at Sea'' (1942) * ''The Great Mr. Handel'' (1942) * ''Out of the Box'' (1942) * ''They Met in the Dark'' (1943) * ''Schweik's New Adventures'' (1943) * ''On Approval'' (1944) * ''A Canterbury Tale'' (1944) * ''Waltz Time'' (1945) * ''Kiss the Bride Goodbye'' (1945) * ''For You Alone'' (1945) * ''Night Boat to Dublin'' (1946) * ''The Laughing Lady'' (1946) * ''Great Expectations'' (1946) * ''Under New Management'' (1946) * ''The Monkey's Paw'' (1948) * ''The Red Shoes'' (1948) * ''Noose'' (1948) * ''The Fallen Idol'' (1948) * ''The Guinea Pig'' (1948) * ''The Queen of Spades'' (1949) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hay Petrie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
