jack elliott, 40, actor, luke kirby
jack gregory elliott was born three years before the great war, second youngest of four with two brothers, one older and one younger, and an older sister to a slightly below middle class family in missouri. jack's father died six months after the start of the war. his mother refused to remarry, moving jack and his siblings, as well as herself, out to california to live with an aunt. his childhood is average.
jack's first brush with acting came at the hand's of his aunt, tasked with minding jack and his siblings while his mom worked, who brought them along to her local theatre group every other week. while he was too young, he sat on the sidelines but eventually joined in sporadically in his teens. he joined low budget movies on open casting calls not long after, getting his feet wet in the business to see how it worked despite not really being committed to acting as a career.
his big break came in the form of a pre-code drama movie in 1932 opposite loretta young. quickly, and in spite of being appreciative of being given the chance, he decides that drama was not what he wanted to do and makes a beeline for something with considerably more substance: thrillers and horror.
it's in thrillers and horror that jack really makes his name, becomes known for his work. jack rarely, if ever, plays the "good" guy, always preferring villains and those who are morally questionable, some who get what's coming to them and some who get away with it. any character he plays who's on the metaphorical right side of things is often doing questionable things to stay there or to get the result being sought after.
jack has been married thrice since 1936; first marriage lasted four years ('36-'40), second lasted three ('40-'43) and his third, and current ('44-present), is a lavender marriage to conceal the fact that his wife, an actress, is a lesbian in order to protect her from her studio's morality clause. it's an open secret amongst those closest to jack, though he does well to keep his affairs on the quieter side of things all the same. there are no children to speak of.
backing it up a bit: by the time the united states joined the war effort in '41, jack had already been conscripted into the air force during peacetime a year prior. he didn't know a lick about planes or combat practices and was 100% a conscientious objector due to his pacifistic nature. unfortunately jack was among the more than half of the 70k conscientious objectors who had their requests denied by the draft board. by the time his initial training was done, he knew more about planes, a little about combat practices and was still a conscientious objector. jack served two tours in the european theatre, saw v-e day, promptly came back to america and said Never Again.
his career picks up even more after '45, after all, who wouldn't want a "war hero" in their movies? it's around '46 that he meets caroline devon, who becomes a frequent collaborator with him during the next five years. caroline is, thusfar, the only co-star he's ever had who challenges him; they work well together and have fantastic chemistry with each other (on and off screen).
jack's got a dry sense of humour, a mischievous streak a mile long, smokes like a chimney (who doesn't?) and has perfected the early iterations of the kubrick stare before it becomes the kubrick stare.
despite a filmography that might contradict it, jack isn't all doom and gloom. he likes art and he's big on entertaining others and very opposite of the characters he portrays.
