Alan Curtis

Curtis played a ruthless killer opposite Gloria Jean. However, the studio cut their performances from the final film version. The footage was later expanded into a B-picture melodrama Destiny. The film failed to establish Curtis as a major-name star, but it did typecast him in hardbitten roles, like the man framed for murder in Phantom Lady (1944) and the detective Philo Vance. Curtis starred in over two dozen movies and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Alan Curtis was married four times, including actresses Priscilla Lawson and Ilona Massey. Read Less
