One thing you should have mentioned was that Lugosi was grossly underpaid for his acting. After the success of Dracula, the studio wanted him to play Frankenstein. Bela turned the role down after reading the script where his only lines were grunts, so the role went to Boris Karloff instead. The studio didn't like him turning down the roll and got even by under paying him from then on. I remember reading that in one movie where he starred with Karloff, he was paid $500.00 while Karloff got $5000.00 for his acting.
...sad? What's sad is people who die with a large fortune having not spent it all
