Graphite on animation paper.

Cary Grant, Raymond Massey, and Peter Lorre during "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1944).

Every time I see this pic, I swear Peter Lorre is looking OVER Cary Grant's head, his attention caught by something else.

Peter Lorre's smug little face gets me every single time.

Yessss

This took WAY too long to rewrite, I am so sorry. I had to get in a very different mindset to write a kink that is sort of adjacent to mine, and yet completely opposed to the Baron's usual brand of joyous gluttony. But I'm back! This story is nearly complete. ^_^

Peter Lorre & His Whippy Stick in Casbah, 1948

Why no, I'm not obsessed at all

Source for this one. I hadn't seen this variant before.

More whippy stick under the cut

Peter would have sat himself right next to that old lady and smoked it up with her, I know it.

I agree about the lighting - the whole deliciously spooky atmosphere made you really feel you were in this town, with these kindly old ladies, next to a little cemetery...

You know I just realized, Peter did not manage to sneak cigarettes into that character, did he. Monumental restraint there. :D

Ohhhhh yessss! This is lovely, and the slight blurriness just makes him seem in motion and therefore alive (in a totally non-creepy way).

You are a marvel!

Just me wishing I could find the source of this particular Peter picture-->

It almost certainly is from this promo shoot, or possibly a still:

Can't resist adding this little set:

"All Through the Night", 1942.

I did ask the person behind the Peter Lorre News site about that top picture! But she said the source is from a private collection.

I still hope the owner of that collection will release or has already released the photo for all to see.

If you find it, please post it!

Start watching this gem here:

Vincent Price and Peter Lorre for a failed TV pilot, called Collector's Item. If the pilot had been picked up, the two horror icons would have had a weekly series together.

Caricature of Peter Lorre in M by Edward Sorel

Oh thank goodness! He did have such a look of Polo, but my own organizational system is abysmal and I couldn't find that pic at all. I feel complete now. 😁

For yes, this now speaks volumes to me, so many layers upon layers (and beneath it all, the real sense of fun those two had in this film).

Petit cœur ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Peter Lorre, "Passage to Marseille" (1944).

A gorgeous man will look good in anything. 😊

Who got cut out of this picture? I love seeing who Peter Lorre is playing off of, what's invoking the look in his eyes, the tilt of his elfin ear, the set of his shoulders, the curve of his jaw.

Just revisiting my own hearteyes screengrab of Peter Lorre, here with Tony Martin in "Casbah" (1948).
