As I've said on this blog before, I'm an admirer of Jack Carson's movie work, and it was nice to discover a page devoted to him. There's a bio, a filmography, and lots of good stuff.
Jack Carson - Tribute to one of the great character actors: "From 'The NEW Biographical Dictionary of Film' by David Thomson, on actor Jack Carson :
'Never nominated or celebrated, never given lead roles in front-rank pictures, Jack Carson could be stupid, vacant, coarse, vain, amiable, decent, touching, nasty, hateful...even ordinary. Somehow one doubts that he ever got, or needed, much direction. Instead he understood story and character. He was cast and he was relied on, and let us say that one in ten times he was indelible... Apart from that, he was only perfect.'"
