I've always been a fan of the actor Boris Karloff. He had a haunting voice, a graceful style of movement, and some of the most expressive eyes I've ever seen.

Of course, Karloff will always be best remembered for his portrayal of Frankenstein's creature in three films throughout the 1930s. It just so happens that I'm also a big fan of most anything to do with Frankenstein. Boris gave the first portrayal of the creature in a style that was in step with the original novel. Though his incarnation was incapable of much speech, the Karloff creature was sympathetic; a lost, sad being who never asked to be born and only wanted to be accepted by humanity.
