Biography
Biography Timeline
Pallette began his silent film career as an extra and stunt man in 1910 or 1911. His first credited appearance was in the one-reel short western/drama The Fugitive (1913) which was directed by Wallace Reid for Flying “A” Studios at Santa Barbara. The up-and-coming actor was also splitting an apartment with actor Wallace Reid.
After gaining a great deal of weight, he became one of the screen’s most recognizable character actors. In 1927, he signed as a regular for Hal Roach Studios and was a reliable comic foil in several early Laurel and Hardy movies. In later years, Pallette’s weight may have topped out at more than 300 pounds (136 kg).
The advent of the talkies proved to be the second major career boost for Pallette. In 1929 he appeared as “Honey” Wiggin in the 1929 talkie The Virginian. His inimitable rasping gravel voice (described as “half an octave below anyone else in the cast”) made him one of Hollywood’s most sought-after character actors in the 1930s and 1940s.
In increasingly ill health by his late fifties, Pallette made fewer and fewer movies, and for lesser studios. His final movie, Suspense, was released in 1946.
In 1946, convinced that there was going to be a “world blow-up” by atomic bombs, the hawkish Pallette received considerable publicity when he set up a “mountain fortress” on a 3,500-acre (14 km) ranch near Imnaha, Oregon, as a hideaway from universal catastrophe. The “fortress” reportedly was stocked with a sizable herd of prize cattle, enormous supplies of food, and had its own canning plant and lumber mill.
Eugene Pallette died at age 65 in 1954 from throat cancer at his apartment, 10835 Wilshire Boulevard, in Los Angeles. His wife, Marjorie, and his sister, Beulah Phelps, were at his side. Private funeral services were conducted on Saturday, September 4, 1954, at the Armstrong Family Mortuary. His cremated remains are interred in an unmarked grave behind the monument of his parents at Green Lawn Cemetery in Grenola, Kansas.
