Akim Tamiroff


Today is the anniversary of the death in 1972 of actor Akim Tamiroff. He's one of those actors who appeared in film after film but who seems to be no longer remembered. He appeared in films from 1932- 1969, using his distinctive voice and Russian accent in a variety of roles.

Films I've seen him in are listed below:

Queen Christina (1933) (uncredited)
The Black Tulip (1963)
Alphaville (1965)

I'll add more to this list as time goes on.
