Little Lord Fauntleroy (1936) FREDDIE BARTHOLOMEWHis aunt Millicent attempted to offset these legal expenses and payouts by demanding a raise in Freddie's MGM salary in Another slew of court cases ensued, this time over the MGM contract, and Freddie missed a critical year's work and some golden film opportunities.
By the time he resumed acting work in , he was well into his teens, and audiences grew less interested in literary period pieces as World War II erupted in Europe.
Following Kidnapped , many of his ten remaining films through were knock-offs or juvenile military films, and only two were for MGM.
In , Freddie enlisted in the U. Air Force for a year to work in aircraft maintenance, exiting with both a back injury and American citizenship.
The additional time away from the screen had not done him any favors, though, and efforts to revive his career on film were unsuccessful.
His efforts performing in regional theaters and vaudeville did not spark a comeback either. Aunt Millicent left for England when Freddie married publicist Maely Daniele in against her wishes.
Freddie toured a few months in Australia doing nightclub singing and piano, but when he returned to the U. He remarked at the time that the millions he had earned as a child had been spent mostly on lawsuits, many of which involved headline court battles between his parents and his aunt for custody of young Freddie and his money.
He became vice president of television programming in , directing and producing several prominent long-running soap operas.
Bartholomew retired due to emphysema by the late s, and eventually moved with his third wife Elizabeth to Florida, where he died in , but not before being filmed in several lovely interview segments for the lengthy documentary, MGM: When the Lion Roars Sign In.
Edit Freddie Bartholomew. Showing all 27 items. Curly-haired Hollywood child star whose earnest presence, refined English diction and angelic looks established him as a box office favorite in the s.
Conflicting with historical records, a New York Times obituary article published 24 January erroneously listed his birthplace as Dublin, Ireland.
Finding it difficult to make the transition from child to adult roles, he ended up moving to television: hosting, directing, producing, and executive producing.
After leaving acting in , Bartholomew vowed never to give any interviews about the so-called "good old days".
We have written and cabled a number of times without reply. We have tried to telephone Hollywood, but the call was refused.
So at last I decided to make the trip. I would have done so before but lack of funds prevented it. Bartholomew crossed the Atlantic third class with her husband's blessing.
Cecil, described by United Press as a "war cripple" told Lillian Mae to bring Freddie back, "but not to injure his future. Over the years the older generation of Bartholomews put together a press packet as thick as Freddie's own and it was fantastic right from the start with headlines trumpeting that Lillian Mae had gone missing sometime after her New York arrival.
The story of Lillian Mae's disappearance made headlines on both sides of the Atlantic when a frantic Cecil told the press that he believed his wife had been kidnapped as part of a plot to keep them from regaining Freddie.
At Penn Station in New York a westbound train was delayed so detectives could search for Lillian Mae, but they came up empty. Upon arrival she was supposed to meet attorney Phillip A.
Back in England Cecil received a wire in which Lilian claimed to have arrived safely and to be traveling igcognito; this sent Cecil into a greater panic as he said his wife would have no idea what the term incognito would even mean.
It turns out that Lillian had met a Joseph G. Hobbs, London barrister, on the ship over to the States and it appears that Hobbs had convinced her to book a flight to Washington to bring her case directly to the government's attention.
Inclement weather caused Lillian to cancel the Washington flight. Two days of kidnapping headlines came to an end when Lillian Mae arrived in California where she checked in with the British consulate and a local attorney who branded the nationwide search for her as publicity.
Meanwhile Freddie was kept ignorant of all this with Millicent's attorney stating that the boy star would not be told "unless it was absolutely necessary.
Upon settling in Los Angeles and taking some time in seclusion Lillian would file petition with the courts attempting to reverse the previous ruling which had appointed Millicent as Freddie's legal guardian.
Cecil dropped a bomb on the case from overseas when he sent a wire stating "The deponent has complete confidence in Millicent Bartholomew, and feels that the interests of the minor will be best served by leaving his control in the said Millicent Bartholomew's hands, subject to the co-operation with the deponent.
In other words Cecil had withdrawn his support from his wife and thrown it in favor of his sister, Freddie's Aunt Cissie.
Lillian claimed that Cecil had made an agreement with Millicent whereby one third of Freddie's earnings would go to them, a third to Millicent, and a third into a trust fund for Freddie.
The first battle came to a seemingly peaceful end before April was out when it was arranged for Lillian to meet with her son, Freddie, for the first time since he had departed England.
Freddie's grandparents, Mr. Frederick Robert Bartholomew, who made the trip over to give Millicent backing over Lilian Mae, would also be present at that meeting.
Judging by their mention in later reporting this elder generation of Bartholomews apparently stayed on in America in a home financed by their grandson.
Back at work Freddie's home studio, MGM, would give him top bill in a fun project teaming him with their two other top child stars, Mickey Rooney and Jackie Cooper.
Rooney, who had just appeared with Freddie in Fauntleroy , was clearly on the rise, while Cooper, who had grown a little large for his age had already left his most famous days behind him.
The film, The Devil Is a Sissy , was an exciting romp which saw Freddie leave his high class mother's custody to spend the summer on the skids with his bohemian father, played by Ian Hunter.
Freddie, a kind-hearted little dandy, does his best to win the approval of a gang of kids led by Buck Murphy Cooper and Gig Stevens Rooney , a boy whose criminal father was just electrocuted in the electric chair.
Spreading the spectrum from comedy to drama with a touch of romance, a musical number thrown in out of the blue after Peggy Conklin turns a cartwheel that lands her at her piano bench, and a climax hinging on a brief gangster plot, The Devil is a Sissy is all over the place but remains great fun at a break neck pace.
Freddie is at his best here trying to overcome his high fallutin' accent and the upper class ways that come packaged with it to get down and dirty with the other boys, a group also including Bugs--who eats bugs--and Six Toes--who has six toes, "By Jove, I say now, this is something!
Following Sissy Freddie was again loaned out to Twentieth Century-Fox to play young Jonathan Blake in the first quarter or so of Lloyd's of London , a historical drama which would see Freddie grow up to become Tyrone Power!
Perhaps the most amazing thing about Lloyds is Power, in an early role, more of less stepping right into the Blake personality established earlier in the movie by Freddie.
Freddie's Blake was his most rough and tumble character to date. For instance, he was considered the bad influence over his boyhood chum, who incidentally grows up to become Lord Nelson.
As in Copperfield we see Freddie take a long hike that leaves him in bedraggled clothing, though in Lloyd's this was a voluntary journey which would wind up taking him out of poverty and placing him in Lloyd's coffee house.
There his entrepreneurial spirit is immediately stirred by the excitement of business. After Lloyd's Freddie returned to MGM to appear in what would become his most important role, little Harvey in Captains Courageous which would win Spencer Tracy his first of two back to back Academy Awards and receive three other Oscar nominations as well.
Kipling's original Harvey was 19 in the story, but in order to cast Freddie the character was changed to a 12 year old.
Captains Courageous gave Freddie his first opportunity at playing a spoiled brat. Harvey gains his comeuppance at the hands of Tracy's proud Manuel, a second generation fisherman who creates songs out of thin air and reels his fishing line in and out by hand.
The son of a super-wealthy Melvyn Douglas, not a bad guy himself, Freddie's Harvey tortures his schoolmates with his inherited power but steps too far and eventually finds himself expelled.
Harvey accompanies his father on a cruise which is supposed to offer them a chance at bonding with the hope that Harvey somehow manages to absorb his father's better qualities.
Harvey continues his power trip on board the ship where he forces a soda stand to open and insists upon drinking several milkshakes in order to impress a couple of kids who he has met on board.
How else is a 12 year old to prove their power? Sick as a dog after accomplishing his feat, Harvey tumbles overboard into the sea where, unconscious, he is picked up by Manuel who dubs him his "Little Fish.
Harvey tries to assert his power on board the schooner, We're Here , but after humoring him for a few moments the Captain, Disko Troop Lionel Barrymore , gives it to him straight: he's trapped on board, the livelihoods of too many men are at stake to turn back based on what is probably a made up story about his father, a man supposedly rich enough to own the big ship Harvey fell from.
If Harvey wants to eat he had better learn how to work. Disko provides an exclamation point in the form of a backhand across the obnoxious Harvey's face, which judging from Bartholomew's expert expression of hurt and shock marks the first time in his life that little Harvey didn't get his way.
Harvey sulks at first but eventually accepts his fate through his bonding with Manuel which goes through it's ups and downs but winds up cementing itself as what will undoubtedly be the most important relationship of Harvey's entire life.
Nugent of the Times admitted "Young Master Bartholomew, who, frankly, has never been one of this corner's favorites, plays Harvey faultlessly," and draws a comparison to one of Freddie's previous co-stars calling his Harvey, "as reptilian a lad as a miniature Basil Rathbone might have managed," before softening him through his relationship with Tracy's Manuel.
I'm not trying to be modest or heroic but actually my 'Manuel' wouldn't have been so much without him. There is one marvelous kid.
He can give lessons in acting to anybody in this town. Captains Courageous still holds up and remains the classic in which the casual film fan is most likely to encounter Freddie Bartholomew.
He'd be sentenced to 25 years in prison for his appalling gamble. With four years remaining on his traditional seven year contract at MGM Aunt Cissie declared that Freddie was broke and needed a raise.
Bartholomew's demands were well-timed, just a month and a half after the release of the hit Captains Courageous , but the battle would keep Freddie Bartholomew off the screen for nearly a year and it is no surprise to see that upon his return he would never again act in films the quality of his first few major screen appearances.
The career span of a child star isn't long so I can understand the Bartholomews pressing for as much as they could get while Freddie was a hot property.
But I have no doubt that the studio struck back with lesser projects, and even those Freddie would soon grow out of.
The contract battle would play out in the courts and the newspapers with Cissie taking the stance that they were going to break contract with MGM for greener pastures because of the shady circumstances under which Freddie was originally signed by the studio for David Copperfield.
Cissie said that she was told in England by a Mrs. Bollio, an agent for MGM, that "it will be necessary for him to go to Hollywood to make the picture; to take him there is illegal and in violation of the child labour laws of England; we must therefore not discuss the matter with anyone.
Cissie went on to say that since they were too broke to afford the trip overseas on their own MGM paid for everything leaving her under pressure to sign: "I didn't want to sign, but I didn't know what else to do I was in a strange country, without funds except those MGM provided I finally signed Freddie's contract, but it was against my will.
The courts sided with the studio and blocked Freddie from working for anyone other than MGM while on his suspension which had begun July Lord Jeff still pictures Freddie with Mickey Rooney.
Press photo with press markings. While admitting Bartholomew was a mega-star who made them a ton of money it looked good for MGM that they had given him voluntary pay raises after his early successes.
Perhaps the most humorous story to come in the wake of Freddie's raise was the report of "More Bartholomews" from the October 21 edition of The Daily Mirror in which Freddie's dad, Cecil, announced he'd be bringing his daughters Eileen and Hilda to Hollywood to set them to work.
I don't see any evidence of him having followed up on this dollar induced dream. Freddie's legal woes continued through the close of when a Superior Court Judge ruled against Cecil and Lillian Mae's latest attempts to wrest custody from Cissie.
Freddie himself testified, "I would not care to go to my parents, for, you see, they are practically perfect strangers to me. I am very happy with my aunt.
I love her very much. She is like a mother to me. Cissie meanwhile was trying to take away control of Freddie's financial affairs from a trust company who had been granted guardianship over his earnings.
Selznick who had made himself into one of Hollywood's top agents. Freddie's filmography is notably absent of any Selznick productions following Little Lord Fauntleroy , so this likely turned ugly.
Soon enough all of Freddie Bartholomew's financial troubles would be laid out in black and white for public consumption.
Freddie Bartholomew was finally back to work in early , initially on loan-out once more to Twentieth Century-Fox for their production of Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped , and then back on the home lot paired again with Mickey Rooney for Lord Jeff.
After that, Freddie found himself opposite Judy Garland for the only time in his career in the disappointing Listen, Darling , best remembered for Garland's performing "Zing!
Went the Strings of My Heart," but little else. It's a tough watch for the Freddie fan. In doing so Freddie's assets and debts were disclosed to the public record with the latter far outweighing the former.
And somehow the itemized tally totals far more that that. The courts allowed payments to his parents and attorneys to be set aside and also made Freddie a financial ward of the Superior Court.
This removed responsibility from the bank that his Aunt had previously battled for custodianship. Now with his finances in the court's control even Cissie couldn't spend a dime of Freddie's money without court approval.
The result of these actions led to Freddie finally banking some money in which was made public record in January A settlement was reached which tided things over until Cecil and Lillian Mae decided it wasn't enough.
They managed to get the high court to reopen the case in after Freddie had turned On the screen Freddie was still credited with fine acting though he had lost appeal with audiences after shooting up to nearly 6 feet tall--Lord Fauntleroy was not so little anymore.
But his name still had value and he soon found work on another literary classic in Swiss Family Robinson with Thomas Mitchell and Edna Best heading the family Robinson.
Freddie and Terry Kilburn, child star who's face you'll immediately recognize from Goodbye, Mr. Chips , garnered the most publicity from the film with the press even trying to set up a rivalry based upon Kilburn out Bartholomewing Freddie.
Jimmy Lydon actually had the lead role in Tom Brown's School Days , but Freddie was still one of the top three billed stars in the film along with Sir Cedric Hardwicke, who played the headmaster of Rugby, Dr.
Thomas Arnold. The movie opens with Freddie's character, East, apologizing to Lydon's Tom Brown over a memorial to the since deceased Dr.
Then we're taken back in time and treated to the entire rise and fall of their friendship with Lydon's Tom Brown of the title the focus of the movie.
Freddie played the cocksure young man who welcomed Brown to the new school at first seeming only to have ideas on Brown's pocketbook but soon earning a respect for the way Tom carried himself.
While the boys hold an uprising against bullying they must do so without tattling on their tormentors because the greatest crime of the school is telling tales out of turn.
Tom Brown eventually discovers that doing so leads to total ostracism. Freddie's East has the unenviable task of cutting himself off from Brown and circumstances cause him to hold out longer than any of the other boys in severing what was once a close friendship.
While Freddie's East does come off as a little stubborn he's still a likable chap and on the whole a much more realistic character than Brown himself, who can be, like some of Freddie's own earlier characters, a little too sugary.
The film was a poverty row knock-off of the classic Goodbye, Mr. Chips , but with it's own literary legacy and a fine cast that also included Josephine Hutchinson, Polly Moran and Gale Storm in her film debut.
It's easily enough seen today as a public domain offering, but unfortunately the quality of the available prints is poor. Freddie's career slowed down after being cast off by MGM.
He only appeared in one film in each and , Naval Academy and Cadets on Parade both for Columbia. Peter Lawford at the right.
Showing us another side of Freddie as he recalled him in a interview Halop said, "Freddie Bartholomew used to play sissy types in pictures, but he wasn't like that at all.
We used to cruise up and down in a Cadillac and pick up broads. Just prior to the one year anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor year-old Freddie Bartholomew enlisted in the U.
Army Air Corps. Time Magazine pointed out that after taking out his first citizenship papers in March , Freddie would automatically be awarded U.
Freddie was sworn in to the Army January 13, and served as a student-mechanic at the airfield in Amarillo, Texas. He was discharged a year later, January 12, due to a back injury.
This injury is often reported as having taken place during his service time but I found it referenced as having been suffered in at the hands of someone pulling a chair out from under him as a practical joke.
Perhaps the injury was reaggravated during service. At the time of his discharge Freddie said, "I'm going to try to get well and get back in the Army.
If I can't make it I may go back to pictures. Back in Hollywood, Freddie was no longer a child star and appears to have had a hard time finding work appearing only in the Roth-Greene-Rouse production The Town Went Wild in The Town Went Wild would be Freddie's last film appearance for seven years and unfortunately that later effort would not be the beginning of a comeback, but a pretty concrete good-bye.
Freddie was driving his midget automobile between 25 and 30 miles per hour on November 4 when he crossed a West Los Angeles intersection and collided with another midget auto driven by Betty Lee Cast, Riding with Freddie was his grandfather, Frederick Bartholomew, Neither they nor Miss Case were injured.
Mary was unconscious for 16 days after the crash with injuries including a triple skull fracture, a broken leg and internal injuries.
Katherine was not badly hurt. Mary Brown was still unable to walk under her own power as many as 11 months later when she appeared in the papers walking with the aid of steel braces.
Despite his barren postwar filmography Freddie was somehow considered for a comeback part in 's Adventure which starred Greer Garson with Clark Gable, who was making his return performance after serving in World War II.
Adventure was most definitely an A level production making Freddie's consideration all the more interesting. There was also talk of Freddie going to England to appear in Gabriel Pascal's L'Aiglon , but the project never came to be.
The fact that Freddie Bartholomew was off the screen didn't mean that he was without work altogether. Or for that matter without representation.
On April 25 of year-old Freddie married his press agent, the former Maely Daniele, whom he had met during a Little Theater production of "Candida" on the West Coast.
Freddie Bartholomew with first wife, Maely Daniele. Maely was 6 years older than Freddie and already had two marriages behind her.
This was much to the consternation of Aunt Cissy who was quoted in papers as saying "Isn't it dreadful? This is the worst thing that has happened in the 12 years we've been in Hollywood.
It's all so sordid. The papers also asked grandfather Frederick what he thought and the old-timer plainly told them, "I'd like to wring his neck.
Aunt Cissy had previously put a stop to Freddie and Maely's first attempt at getting married earlier that April and it appears as though his going through with the surprise elopement a few weeks later drove a wedge between them that soon drove Millicent Bartholomew back to England.
She remained overseas until her death in The Billboard gave Freddie and A for effort but said that he failed to get his act over with the audience.
That same month Freddie appeared as himself in Herald Pictures Sepia Cinderella , a musical with an otherwise all-black cast that was released to segregated theaters.
Jerry Rosen, who booked the tour from the U. Most of Freddie's biographical information credits him with owning a club during his time in Australia, but there is no record of that.
During this tour Freddie made numerous appearances in Australian newspapers. His act was said to consist of singing plus some patter with audiences all accompanied by his playing on the piano.
Basically the same act that The Billboard had previously panned. Australian papers were more polite. While the more in-depth coverage of Freddie's Australian engagements always made a point to talk about how happily married he was they also pointed out that Maely remained home in America during Freddie's stay in Australia.
Freddie pictured with Miss Australia contestants, Maely was an interesting figure who I've seen listed as being born in places as varied as Paris, Russia and Czechoslovakia.
During the time of her marriage to Freddie, Maely would become a lifelong friend and by some reports business manager of the legendary Billie Holliday.
It appears that through Holliday she met her next husband, William Dufty, ghostwriter of Holliday's Lady Sings the Blues , and himself a future husband of Gloria Swanson.
Maely's involvement in Civil Rights activities is always mentioned in her later clippings, usually planting her in Harlem rallying for one cause or another.
She married once more and died Maely Dufty Lewis in After returning from Australia Freddie Bartholomew settled down with Maely in New York where he became involved with television.
LeBow writes that Freddie "was immediately and eagerly accepted by the Channel 11 staff. And loved by most everyone.
As he settled in among his new colleagues, his own defenses slowly gave way and he returned love and loyalty in heaping amounts, to say nothing of laughter.
It seems Freddie had grown into a practical joker and LeBow recounts one of his more daring exploits:. One late evening while Freddie was in charge of station operations, a staff film projectionist privately showed him a five-minute clip of explicit sexual action.
What led Freddie to his next move we innocent but interested bystanders will never know. At a. Freddie had the fornication film put on the air.
And so appeared television's first pornographic show. Several viewers wrote enthusiastic letters.
But until this day, Channel 11 executives think it never happened This was right in the middle of the Red Scare and the heights of McCarthyism.
Freddie somehow got his hands on an official Communist Party membership card and flashed it to one of their co-workers on the side.
Freddie scared the kid to death when he told him, "I'm a charter member and I've been told to contact you because you're the new recruit.
LeBow wrote that Freddie wouldn't discuss his Hollywood career at all and that he was shocked to see the hard times his one time favorite child star had fallen on.
He describes Bartholomew as "experiencing hell. His fortune has been spirited away. He has outgrown his screen image. His good looks have been disarrayed by nature and problems.
A bad marriage. And he is broke" Freddie earned his own chapter in LeBow's book because of the impact he had on the author's own life: "This decent person who lived with grace and dignity among the famous and infamous was a lesson in human strength and humanness at its best.
In August The Billboard announced that Freddie had signed a contract with Admiral Records, not to record the live routine he had been performing the past few years, but to record fairy tales for a series of children's recordings.
But LeBow's coverage was really the last up close and personal look I was able to find of Freddie Bartholomew.
Certainly we wouldn't learn much from Freddie's final feature film, St. Benny the Dip , released in Lee in St. Benny the Dip. Benny the Dip is pretty good for a poverty row production and I would imagine especially enjoyable for fans of Lionel Stander or Roland Young, but it is a very depressing screen finale for Freddie Bartholomew fans.
Fifth billed in the Edgar G. Armed with dialogue consisting of oohs, ahhs and various other exclamations, Freddie's Wilbur follows Miles around like a puppy dog as the elder Reverend oversees the reformation of Haymes, Young and Stander, three petty crooks who soak in the atmosphere of the religious garb they stole from the Reverend's church while escaping the police.
Released by United Artists I can only imagine St. Benny the Dip was Freddie's last gasp at resurrecting his film career simply because Danziger Productions, who made the film, was local to him and the filming was done in New York.
Or perhaps he owed someone a favor, in either case the film certainly didn't do him any good turns. Freddie Bartholomew with Dick Gordon in St.
Lester did find novelty in Freddie occasionally modeling some of his own items from time to time, "masculine items, of course.
After his divorce from Maely and while he was still working at the television station, Freddie would meet his second wife, Aileen Paul. Freddie and Aileen were married in Yonkers Unitarian Church, December 12, and would remain married for approximately 23 years.
While his film career was firmly behind him, Freddie did continue to associate with the celebrity set. He's reported to have been at a Hollywood party at Chuck Conners' home in while in town on business.
The Bartholomews settled in Leonia, New Jersey where many other celebrities also called home. America was astounded to see this well circulated shot of Freddie Bartholomew, then and now, in newspapers.
Freddie and Aileen separated sometime in late , possibly early , with the couple still together as late as September 30, She continued to be a very active writer and remained Mrs.
Steven Phillips until her death in just past her eightieth birthday. Freddie Bartholomew continued working and often appeared in the Soap Opera notes in the early 's when he was executive producer of soaps such as As the World Turns and Search for Tomorrow.
The final reference I can find to Freddie's career came in , but from that time until the end of his life in it is a bit of a mystery.
Mayer Freddie said, "He loved us so much he would do anything for us except, of course, pay us what we were worth.
By the time it aired Freddie was gone. According the his New York Times obituary he married a third time to a woman named Elizabeth who survived him.
I wasn't able to track down Elizabeth's maiden name, nor any reference to her at any time except in the Freddie Bartholomew obituaries.
Freddie Bartholomew died of emphysema, January 23, in Sarasota, Florida, where I assume he relocated upon his retirement. One of the greatest child actors in the history of cinema, Freddie Bartholomew will always be remembered as Little Lord Fauntleroy and David Copperfield and we can only hope more of his films return to print sometime in the future especially a decent copy of Swiss Family Robinson!
Blessed with one of the greatest speaking voices the screen has ever seen, Freddie suffered through numerous legal battles with his family throughout the peak of his career and possibly wasted the opportunity of carving out an even greater screen legacy through money battles with M.
Freddie's career was already headed south when he enlisted at age 18 and saw World War II cause another interruption to whatever momentum he may have had on screen at that time.
Who knows, perhaps the press covering Freddie's service time made everyone realize that yes, he really was all grown up. I am … speechless. I knew you were the go-to-guy on Freddie, but this post just knocked me over.
Thanks so much twitterdisqus I really appreciate that. This post is soooo long that I expect not many will get down this far, but I do hope the Freddie-fans are entertained if they do!
Which I hope happens! Thanks again! Imagine my pleasure when I happened upon your wonderfully researched article.
With a little more digging, this would make a terrific book. Thanks and good luck. Thanks so much fc9dcffeaabd8bb37ed:disqus I hope I managed to satisfy any curiosity you had in coming over.
Congratulations on putting all this together, Cliff — a very interesting in-depth piece. I liked your discussion of the impression Bartholomew makes as an actor and the way we see through his eyes rather than just watching him.
A shame that he made so little money from his years of fame due to all the court cases, something which sadly seems to have happened to quite a few child stars over the years.
As I mentioned in a reply above Freddie seems to have had a very successful and unusual second Act where what appears to have been a very difficult post-WWII era for him turned out to be a wildly successful career in Advertising and TV.
Good for him! I definitely could relate to him when his father lied and told him his mother was dead.

I don't think the charm of Freddie in his classics such as David CopperfieldLittle Lord Fauntleroy or even Supergirl Staffel 2 Bs brattier Freddie of Captains Courageous comes from the viewer simply observing him--I find that more than any other child star we're walking in Freddie's shoes in these films and experiencing the world as he experiences it.

Featured Review:.So great was his fame in the late 's that it made headlines when he had his customary curls sheared off because he thought them "too sissified.
His years of stardom were also plagued by headlines generated by the efforts of his parents, Cecil and Lillian Mae Bartholomew, to regain custody of their son.
The dispute was finally resolved in when it was agreed that he could continue to live under the guardianship of his aunt. His parents were given allowances for their living expenses from his salary.
Life After Stardom. By , when he was a gangling teen-ager, his days of stardom were over and he returned to school, having been adopted by his aunt.
In World War II he served with scarcely any public attention as a maintenance worker for a group of B bombers. After his discharge, he appeared in vaudeville and nightclub shows, performed in summer theater and traveled widely, but he was never able to re-establish his acting career.
Eventually, he moved into directing television shows in the United States. He handled the company's involvement in "The Andy Griffith Show" and other shows.
The millions of dollars he earned as a child had long since disappeared, he told an interviewer in Between the lawsuits involving his parents and movie studios, he said, "I was drained dry.
In all, he made 24 films. Looking back on his life as a star, he said the movie he most enjoyed making was "Captains Courageous.
When the shooting was finished, we cried like a bunch of babies as we said our good-byes. In addition to his stepdaughter, he is survived by his wife, Elizabeth; a daughter, Katie, of Santa Fe, N.
