Biography: A descendant of 19th-century theatrical impresario Dion Boucicault, British character actor Donald Calthrop was on stage from 1906 and in films from 1918. Calthrop was most often seen as a villain, usually the type who relishes telling the hero how and why he "did it." A favorite of Alfred Hitchcock, Calthrop skulked his way through the Master's Blackmail (1929), Juno and the Paycock (1930) Murder (1930) and Number Seventeen (1932). He also cast a sinister shadow over two important railroad-related melodramas of the early talkie era, The Ghost Train (1931) and Rome Express (1932).
