Netflix Movies Starring Percy Marmont
Tall, debonair British matinée idol Percy Marmont first acted on stage in 1900. As a romantic lead from 1916, he made his screen debut while touring South Africa with a theatrical troupe in De Voortrekkers (1916). From there, the players went on to Australia (where Marmont made a second film, The Monk and the Woman (1917)) and then to the U.S.. A chance encounter with a Broadway producer led to him being cast in a leading role in the comedy "The Three Bears", which effectively postponed his intended return to Britain until 1928. During his time in the States, Marmont divided his time between the theatre and films. His first big successes were in Hollywood, where a street was named after him (Marmont Lane), leading to 'Chateau Marmont', a recreated gothic castle in which the rich and famous could rent a room for up to $750 per month.
