FOR Petra Zemanova
TODAY we remembering the BIRTHDAY of UK actor BARRY WARREN, born today
in 1933. Trained at RADA, graduating in 1955, Warren was a handsome very
competent supporting actor in several theatre productions, and spent
the majority of his career on UK tv screens. 'The Wednesday Play' 'Play
of the Month', two characters in the Brit TV classic 'The Avengers in
1966 and and 68.
AROUND 1975, he vanished completely and continued his life... in a completely different role and gender. WE know him best probably for his work with Hammer Films and the excellent role he played with Peter Cushing in 'Frankenstein Created Woman as Karl in 67.

WARREN ALSO worked with Christopher Lee as Manuel in 'The Devil Ship Pirate's' in 64 and probably his best role for #HammerFILMS
as creepy Carl Ravna in 'The Kiss of the Vampire' in 1963. Today we
remember Warren and the edge he brought to those 'bad cads' in 'Created
Woman' the haunted Ravna in '#KissoftheVampire'
and lets not forget his softer side even against the ranks of Lee's
Captain Robeles authority! all very sound roles and performances in
three classic Hammer films! Happy Birthday and thank you, Barry
lovely post. Totally love Barry Warren. I don't know...each time Im watching him... especially in "Kiss of the Vampire" - there is something in his eyes.
