Edit
  • Trivia
    Playing pretty much the same character in almost all his pictures, Fritz Feld, with his pencil-thin mustache, passed as barons, maitre d', hotel clerks and aristocrats. His famous trademark, usually when his character was incensed, was to "pop" his mouth by slapping it with the palm of his hand to indicate his "superior" annoyance. No one could ever determine his characters' nationality but he can be described as a mixture of "French and Belgianish" or from "somewhere in Europe.".
    • He would make a pop with his mouth.
