On February 5, 1906, John Carradine was born.

A happy heavenly 117th birthday to one of the best ever, John Carradine.

An immensely talented actor known for The Grapes of Wrath and The Ten Commandments, he appeared in hundreds of low-budget movies because the easy paychecks funded his touring Shakespearean theater company





Actor John Carradine was #BornOnThisDay, Feb. 5, 1906. Appeared in over 350 films & TV episodes, 1 of the most prolific English-speaking actors of all time. Passed in 1988 (age 82) from heart/kidney failure. His last words were "Milan: What a beautiful place to die" #RIP #BOTD
