Jack Norton

Highest Rated: 97% The Palm Beach Story (1942)

Lowest Rated: 95% Hail the Conquering Hero (1944)

Birthday: Sep 2, 1889

Birthplace: Brooklyn, New York, USA

Unforgettable comedy character actor, in many films and invariably as the well-dressed but almost completely incoherent drunk. Mustachioed, his features rumpled (and usually his clothes too), Norton added hilarity to many films, though in later years some questioned the treatment of alcoholism as a subject for comedy.
