Edward Keane Movies
American actor
Edward Keane was eminently suitable for roles requiring tuxedos and military uniforms. From his first screen appearance in 1921 to his last in 1952, Keane exuded the dignity and assurance of a self-made man of wealth or a briskly authoritative Armed Services officer. Fortunately his acting fee was modest, enabling Keane to add class to even the cheapest of poverty-row "B"s. Generations of Marx Bros. fans will remember
Edward Keane as the ship's captain (he's the one who heaps praise upon the three bearded Russian aviators) in
A Night at the Opera (1935). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
