Great English actor of British and American films. Born in Yorkshire, attended Marlborough and Cambridge, where he discovered acting on a lark and abandoned a planned career as an architect. Following work in stock companies, he joined the Old Vic under the guidance of Sir 'Tyrone Guthrie' (qv) and of 'Alexander Korda (I)' (qv), who gave Mason at least one small film role in 1933, but fired him a few days into shooting. Mason remained in the theatre becoming a prominent stage actor, meanwhile getting first small, then rapidly larger roles in "quota quickies", minor films made to accommodate laws mandating a certain percentage of films shown in Britain to be British-made. Mason's talent for playing protagonists of a decidedly hard-bitten or melancholy stripe brought him from these minor films to a position as one of Britain's major film stars of the Forties. When, late in that decade, he came to America, he played somewhat more glamorous or heroic roles than he had been accustomed to in Britain, but he remained a dynamic and intelligent force on the screen. His tendency to take any job offered led him to have many unworthy credits on his resume but, throughout his career, he remained a respected and powerful figure in the industry. His mellifluous voice and an uncanny ability to suggest rampant emotion beneath a face of absolute calm made him a fascinating performer to watch. He died of a heart attack in 1984 at his home in Switzerland.

I met a murderer (1939) JAMES MASON FULL MOVIE

- Published: 28 Jul 2011
- Updated: 05 Jun 2012
"I met a murderer" starring James Mason and future wife Pamela Kellino was filmed in 1937 and directed by Roy Kellino, who at that time was still married to Pamela. The film is essentially the story of a man on the run, James Mason (a farmer) murders his nagging wife and then goes on the run, encountering a girl (Pamela Kellino) who brings him brief happiness. The film unusually for a British film of the period uses an absolute minimum of dialogue, and uses the camera and plenty of close-ups of the leading players to tell its story. This interesting film has never been shown on UK tv,or been released to dvd or video. The running time quoted for the full print is 79 minutes, but this version runs just over an hour is an American release print. This film is a must for fans of James Mason, and shows the actor perfecting his craft that would soon propel him to star status in both the UK and the US. This film was originally protected by the Copyright Acts of 1911 and 1956. Copyright in the UK expired in 1989 and it is presented here for research purposes only.

Footage of James Manson inter viewing James Mason. James Mason is a supporter of Charles Manson, and recognized him as the current king of the lineage of white supremacy, following in the footsteps of folks like HitIer and George Lincoln Rockwell. Larson spends most of the interview alluding to the bible to support his own arguments, much to Mason's bemusement. Please excuse the presence of the Race and Reason interview of Radio Werewolf at the end, I was unable to remove it from the total video, because it was not cut into chapters or sections and the total length is almost 2 hours.

The Tell-Tale Heart is a wonderful animated short film of 1953 based on Edgar Allan Poe short-story. The story told by a mad man has a dark visual with a perfect work of narration by James Mason. It is a UPA Production and was the first cartoon to be X-rated (adults only) in Great Britain under the British Board of Film Censors classification system. Really great - you have to see it.

Biography
Early life
Mason was born in Huddersfield, in the West Riding of Yorkshire, to John and Mabel Mason; his father was a wealthy merchant. He was educated at Marlborough College, and earned a first in architecture at Peterhouse, Cambridge where he became involved in stock theatre companies in his spare time. Mason had no formal training as an actor and initially embarked upon it for fun. After Cambridge he joined the Old Vic theatre in London under the guidance of Tyrone Guthrie and Alexander Korda. In 1933 Korda gave Mason a small role in ''The Private Life of Don Juan'' but fired him three days into shooting.
Career
From 1935 to 1948 he starred in many British quota quickies. A conscientious objector during World War II (causing his family to break with him for many years), he became immensely popular for his brooding anti-heroes in the Gainsborough series of melodramas of the 1940s, including ''The Man in Grey'' (1943) and ''The Wicked Lady'' (1945). He also starred with Deborah Kerr and Robert Newton in ''Hatter's Castle'' (1942). He then took the lead role in the critically acclaimed and immensely popular ''The Seventh Veil'' (1945) that set box office records in postwar Britain and raised him to international stardom. He followed it with a role as a mortally wounded Irish bank robber in ''Odd Man Out'' (1947) and his first Hollywood film, ''Caught'' (1949). Exhibitors voted him the most popular star in Britain in 1944 and 1945.Mason's distinctive voice enabled him to play a menacing villain as greatly as his good looks assisted him as a leading man. His roles include Brutus in ''Julius Caesar'' (1953), Field Marshal Erwin Rommel in ''The Desert Fox: The Story of Rommel'' and ''The Desert Rats'', the amoral valet turned spy in Joseph Mankiewicz's ''5 Fingers'', the declining actor in the first remake of ''A Star Is Born'' (1954), Captain Nemo in ''20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'' (also 1954), a small town school teacher driven insane by the effects of cortisone in ''Bigger Than Life'' (1956), a suave master spy in ''North by Northwest'' (1959), a determined explorer in ''Journey to the Center of the Earth'' (also 1959), Humbert Humbert in Stanley Kubrick's ''Lolita'' (1962), a river pirate who betrays Peter O'Toole's character in ''Lord Jim'' (1965), the evil Doctor Polidori in ''Frankenstein: The True Story'' (1973), the vampire's servant, Richard Straker, in ''Salem's Lot'', and surreal Royal Navy Captain Hughes in ''Yellowbeard'' (1983). One of his last roles, that of corrupt lawyer Ed Concannon in ''The Verdict'' (1982), earned him his third and final Oscar nomination.
His final screen-work was playing the lead role in ''Dr. Fischer of Geneva'' (adapted from the Graham Greene novella, 1985) as the eccentric wealthy businessman who played games with the Swiss upper class, such as offering gifts to his guests on the proviso they accepted some humiliating ritual activity (such as wearing a child's bib at the dinner table). In 1975 he played Falconhurst plantation owner in the controversial film ''Mandingo''.
In the late 1970s, Mason became a mentor to up-and-coming actor Sam Neill.
Late in life, he served as narrator for a British television series on the films of Charlie Chaplin, ''Unknown Chaplin,'' which was aired in the U.S. on PBS and later issued on home video.
Private life
Mason was a devoted lover of animals, particularly cats. He and his wife, Pamela Mason, co-authored the book ''The Cats in Our Lives'', which was published in 1949. James Mason wrote most of the book and also illustrated it. In ''The Cats in Our Lives'', he recounted humorous and sometimes touching tales of the cats (as well as a few dogs) he had known and loved.Mason was married twice:
Mason's autobiography, ''Before I Forget'', was published in 1981.
Death
Mason survived a cardiac arrest in 1959 and died as a result of another on 27 July 1984 in Lausanne, Switzerland. He was cremated and (after a delay of 16 years) his ashes were buried in Corsier-sur-Vevey, Vaud, Switzerland. The remains of Mason's old friend Charlie Chaplin are in a tomb a few steps away.Mason's widow, Clarissa Kaye, also known as Kaye-Mason, died in 1994 from cancer.
Filmography
Box Office Ranking
For a number of years, exhibitors voted him among the top ten stars at the British box office via an annual poll in the ''Motion Picture Herald''. 1945 - most popular British star 1946 - most popular British and international star 1947 - most popular British and 2nd most popular international star 1952 - 7th most popular international star

Moira Shearer, Lady Kennedy (17 January 1926 – 31 January 2006), was an internationally famous Scottish ballet dancer and actress.
Early life
She was born Moira Shearer King in Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland, the daughter of actor Harold V. King. In 1931 her family moved to Ndola, Northern Rhodesia, where she received her first dancing training under a former pupil of Enrico Cecchetti. She returned to Britain in 1936 and trained with Flora Fairbairn in London for a few months before she was accepted as a pupil by the Russian teacher Nicholas Legat. After three years with Legat, she joined the Sadler's Wells Ballet School. However, after the outbreak of the World War II, her parents took her to live in Scotland. She made her debut with Mona Inglesby's International Ballet in 1941 before moving on to Sadler's Wells in 1942.
Film career
She came to international attention for her first film role as Victoria Page in the Powell & Pressburger ballet-themed film ''The Red Shoes'', (1948). Even her hair matched the titular footwear, and the role and film were so powerful that although she went on to star in other films and worked as a dancer for many decades, she is primarily known for playing "Vicky."Shearer retired from ballet in 1953, but she continued to act, appearing as Titania in ''A Midsummer Night's Dream'' at the 1954 Edinburgh Festival. She worked again for Powell on the controversial film ''Peeping Tom'' (1960), which damaged Powell's own career.
In 1972, she was chosen by the BBC to present the Eurovision Song Contest when it was staged at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh. According to author and historian John Kennedy O'Connor's ''The Eurovision Song Contest - The Official History'', Shearer accepted the role of hostess because her children wanted something to tease her with in the future. She also wrote for ''The Daily Telegraph'' newspaper and gave talks on ballet worldwide.
The choreographer Gillian Lynne persuaded her to return to ballet in 1987 to play L. S. Lowry's mother in ''A Simple Man'' for the BBC.
Along with her continued work in film, in the mid-1960s, Shearer danced (and sang) the role of Morgan le Fay in the original London production of "Camelot," directed and choreographed by her "Red Shoes" co-star, Sir Robert Helpmann.
Personal life
In 1950, Moira Shearer married journalist and broadcaster Ludovic Kennedy. They were married in the Chapel Royal in London's Hampton Court Palace. The couple had a son, Alastair, and three daughters, Ailsa, Rachel and Fiona. She died at the Radcliffe Infirmary, Oxford, England at the age of 80.
