On this day, February 5, 1906, John Carradine was born.

A happy heavenly [119th] birthday to one of the best ever, John Carradine.

An immensely talented actor known for The Grapes of Wrath and The Ten Commandments, he appeared in hundreds of low-budget movies because the easy paychecks funded his touring Shakespearean theater company





Actor John Carradine was #BornOnThisDay, Feb. 5, 1906. Appeared in over 350 films & TV episodes, 1 of the most prolific English-speaking actors of all time. Passed in 1988 (age 82) from heart/kidney failure. His last words were "Milan: What a beautiful place to die" #RIP #BOTD
