Hit The Ice (Charles Lamont, 1943) [VOSE].avi

Charles Lamont (5 de mayo de 1895 - 12 de septiembre de 1993) fue un prolífico cineasta, dirigiendo más de 200 títulos y produciendo y escribiendo muchos otros. Nacido en California, Lamont nació en San Francisco y murió en Los Ángeles.

Carrera
Algunos de los primeros encargos de Lamont como director fueron comedias cortas mudas para Educational Pictures. Una de las series populares del estudio fue "Comedias Juveniles", presentando al niño actor Malcolm "Big Boy" Sebastian. Lamont dirigió algunas de estas películas, así como algunas de las comedias de su personaje competidor "Buster Brown" lanzado por Universal Pictures. Ambas productoras tuvieron un papel prominente en la carrera de Lamont.

En 1932 Educational asignó a Lamont a la serie de comedias para niños "Baby Burlesk", presentando a Shirley Temple, de cuatro años. En 1934, Lamont era el principal director de Educational, y colaboró ​​con Buster Keaton en la mayoría de los 16 cortos educativos de Keaton.

Después de que Educational cerró su estudio de Hollywood, Columbia Pictures contrató a Lamont para trabajar con estrellas como Charley Chase y The Three Stooges, pero su estancia fue corta ("Tenía un odio intenso por [el presidente de Columbia] Harry Cohn", dijo Lamont a los autores Ted Okuda y Edward Watz).

Lamont luego trabajó de forma independiente para varios estudios (y produjo algunos trabajos) antes de unirse a Universal Pictures en 1942. Lamont siempre tuvo una gran relación con intérpretes juveniles, y Universal le confió una serie de vehículos de comedia musical para la cantante adolescente del estudio Gloria Jean. Lamont enfatizó los elementos cómicos de las películas, con Donald O'Connor y Peggy Ryan aportando sus talentos, y los musicales para adolescentes fueron muy populares entre el público en tiempos de guerra.

La experiencia de Lamont con presupuestos limitados le fue muy útil en Universal, y pronto fue ascendido a las producciones más importantes del estudio. En 1950 se estableció como uno de los directores más eficientes de Universal. Así fue con sorpresa y recelo que Lamont recibió su nueva tarea: las películas de Abbott y Costello. Estas comedias eran dinero para el estudio, pero no tenían prestigio en absoluto, y Lamont se irritó ante lo que parecía ser un retroceso en su carrera. Sus jefes de Universal explicaron su necesidad de un buen director de comedia que pudiera hacer el trabajo indefinidamente, y Lamont se dio cuenta de que "Abbott y Costello eran mi futuro". Lamont se quedó con el equipo hasta que el estudio los cortó en 1955.

Lamont también dirigió las exitosas comedias de Ma y Pa Kettle de Universal; su última película fue la comedia final de Francis the Talking Mule, Francis in the Haunted House (1956).

Murió de neumonía en 1993 a la edad de 98 años. wiki
