ceiling plaster on the head

CHARLIE HALL

b. August 9, 1899; d. December 7, 1959
Appeared with Laurel and Hardy in 47 films.

Other notable films: College (1927); The Gay Divorcee (1934); The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939); You Can't Fool Your Wife (1940); Top Sergeant Mulligan (1941); The Vicious Years (1951)

Charlie Hall and Stan Laurel forged a close friendship during their days together in Fred Karno's troupe -- which may explain his 47 appearances in Laurel and Hardy films (the all-rime record). Hall was a dependable and versatile actor who worked in dozens of features and short subjects, often in support of such top comics as Abbott and Costello, Charlie Chase, Todd & Kelly, Leon Errol and Wheeler & Woolsey.
