as described Singing under the rain, the actor Harrison Ford did not hold the sound film stage. Despite the fact that he came from the theater, to which he would continue to dedicate after having to abandon the seventh art, he could not or did not know how to adapt to talking films. In 1932 he had his only opportunity with the microphones and saw that it was not his time. Even so, He has his star on the Walk of Fame..
He died forgotten and his wife of almost 47 years, Beatrice Prentice, died in 1977 just as he was coming to American screens. Star Warsby then Star Wars. The film that opened an era in science fiction was thus presented in a surreal way in the newscast 1 on the occasion of its preview at the San Sebastián Film Festival, with Seville’s Alfonso Eduardo, conductor of film magazine in the Second Chain, as a conductor.
His gesticulation in silent films, mundane dramas and romantic comedies made Harrison Ford one of the best-known actors 100 years ago, half a century before his namesake became an intergenerational idol.
The first Harrison Ford had a busy career in the cinema since in 1915, at the age of 31 and an ideal age to play the leading man in so many melodramas and comedies, he had his first opportunity. This native of Kansas City (twinned city with Seville)in the state of Missouri, after fighting on the Broadway stage, and where he met his aforementioned wife.
The name of Harrison Ford is linked to that of Vanity Fair, film from a century ago, and from The primitive lover, in 1922, together with a female Hollywood star of the time, Constance Talmadge (it was an impossible answer to Pass word a few days ago, by the way).
Next to the gallant during his fifty hits and minor titles are other gold names from this era such as Gloria Swanson o Clara Bow. All that golden stage of the narrative consolidation of the images would fade like tears in the rain when at the end of the decade of a century ago the sound appeared.
And with the sound, the artistic death of Harrison Ford. Nearly septuagenarian In 1951 he would suffer a traffic accident that left him a paraplegic. A teenager invaded a sidewalk in Los Angeles and carried off what had been one of the greats of silent cinema. In her last six years she was bedridden in a California residence for veteran actors.
It is the ‘other’ Harrison Ford. A star of the same name as the revered octogenarian interpreter with his already legendary characters such as Indiana Jones, Han Solo or the replicant investigator Deckard.
