He is also well remembered for his many movies, including: the 1919 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the 1920 version of Sherlock Holmes, Twentieth Century, Counselor at Law, Dinner at Eight, and Grand Hotel. He was nicknamed "The Great Profile". His brother Lionel, and his sister Ethel, were also extremely accomplished stage and movie actors, and they appeared in a single movie together, Rasputin and the Empress. He had a tumultuous private life, and fought alcoholism, and was married four times. He is the father of John Drew Barrymore, and the grandfather of Drew Barrymore. He passed away in 1942 at the age of 60 AND Dolores Costello (also known as Dolores Costello Barrymore) was an actress from the 1900s to the 1940s. Some of her movies include: The Magnificent Ambersons, Old San Francisco, Little Lord Fauntleroy, and the Show of Shows. She was the daughter of Maurice Costello, an early film star, and she co-starred with and was married to actor John Barrymore for seven years (who said when he first saw her, "I have just seen the most beautiful woman in the world. I shall not rest or eat until I see her again."). Her son was John Barrymore, Jr. (John Drew Barrymore) and her granddaughter is Drew Barrymore. She passed away in 1979 at the age of 75 AND Lionel Barrymore was an actor from the 1900s to the 1950s. He was the brother of John Barrymore and Ethel Baryrmore. Some of his movies include: Rasputin and the Empress (as Rasputin), It's a Wonderful Life (as Mr. Potter), Free Soul (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), Madame X (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film), On Borrowed Time, Key Largo, Grand Hotel, Dinner at Eight, Captains Courageous, and as Dr. Gillespie in the many "Dr. Kildare" movies. Note that in his later years, he played most of his performances in a wheelchair, leading many to think he was paralyzed! However, it was a combination of two hip fractures as well as arthritis that limited his mobility in later years (by 1938, Barrymore used a wheelchair exclusively and never walked again). He passed away in 1954 at the age of 76. Important Added Info: Note that this news photo measures 6 1/2" x 8 1/2" [17 x 22 cm]. Condition: good. The photo has changed to a sepia color.
