Reginald Denny (actor) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Reginald Denny (actor)
Reginald Denny (20 November 1891 – 16 June 1967) was an English stage, film and television actor as well as an aviator and UAV pioneer. He was once an amateur boxing champion of Great Britain. ==Acting career== Born Reginald Leigh Dugmore in Richmond, Surrey, England, he began his stage career at age seven in ''The Royal Family'' and in ''The Merry Widow'' at age 16, the year he left St. Francis Xavier College, Mayfield, Sussex. Years later he joined an opera company as a baritone, and toured India. After continuing his stage career in America, his film career started in 1915 with the old World Film Company and he made films both in the United States and Britain until the 1960s. He came from a theatrical family which went to the United States in 1912 to appear in the stage production ''Quaker Girl''. His father was the actor and singer W.H. Denny. Reginald appeared in John Barrymore's 1920 Broadway production of Richard III; the two actors became friends. Denny was a well-known actor in silent films and with the advent of talkies, he became a character actor. He played the lead role in a number of his earlier films, generally as a comedic Englishman in such works as ''Private Lives'' and later had reasonably steady work as a supporting actor in dozens of films, including ''The Little Minister'' (1934) with Katharine Hepburn, ''Anna Karenina'' (1935) with Greta Garbo, Alfred Hitchcock's ''Rebecca'' (1940) and the Frank Sinatra crime caper film ''Assault on a Queen'' (1966). His last role was in ''Batman'' (1966) as Commodore Schmidlapp. He made frequent appearances in television during the 1950s and 1960s.
