Harry Strang Movies
Working in virtual anonymity throughout his film career, the sharp-featured, gangly character actor
Harry Strang was seldom seen in a feature film role of consequence. From 1930 through 1959, Strang concentrated on such sidelines characters as soldiers, sentries, beat cops and store clerks. He was given more to do and say in 2-reel comedies, notably in the output of RKO Radio Pictures, where he appeared frequently in the comedies of
Leon Errol and
Edgar Kennedy. Harry Strang will be remembered by Laurel and Hardy fans for his role as a desk clerk in
Block-Heads (1938), in which he was not once but twice clobbered in the face by an errant football. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
