Actor Born: April 8, 1921 in London, England, UK Death: July 15, 1987 in London, England, UK Biography:Cockney of birth and Cockney in nature, actor Alfie Bass made his first stage appearance in 1939, in the Unity Theatre production "Plant in the Sun". Bass began acting before the camera in wartime British documentaries. While his stage career embraced Shakespeare and Shaw, Bass usually showed up in films as slang-spewing, pragmatic working class types. His movie credits include "The Boys in Brown" (1950) "The Hasty Heart" (1950), "The Night My Number Came Up" (1952), "Help" (1965), "Alfie" (1966), "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum" (1966) and "Moonraker" (1979). Alfie Bass was starred in the award-winning 1955 short subject "The Bespoke Overcoat", and in 1967's "The Fearless Vampire Killers" he raised many a chuckle as the Jewish vampire who is impervious to the traditional crucifix. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
