Here are 10 things you should know about Edward Everett Horton, born on March 18, 1886. His name in the credits is enough to convince us to watch just about any picture he's in.
In her autobiography, Ginger Rogers had such incredible high praise for Mr. Horton. She related that he was as funny in real life as the characters he played on stage and on screen. Miss Rogers also related that "between takes," on the films they appeared together in, she never wanted to be far away from her zany co-star, so not to miss one of his hysterically funny moments. Thank you for posting this wonderful tribute!
He is a favorite old timer, and the voice work on Fractured Fairytales is absolutely pitch perfect.
