About: Leonard Barr

An Entity of Type: comedian, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Leonard Barr (born Leonard Barra; September 27, 1903 – November 22, 1980) was an American stand-up comedian, film actor, and dancer. Barr appeared several times with Dean Martin (his nephew) and Jerry Lewis when they hosted the Colgate Comedy Hour. He had a brief role in The Sting, appropriately as a burlesque comic. That is also the way his character is listed in the credits—as an anonymous comedian. However, in the wings of the stage just before the comic's entrance, he has a brief conversation with Johnny Hooker (Robert Redford), who addresses him as "Leonard". Barr's comedic schtick was one-liners; told with a straight face, and sometimes deliberately repeating a punchline.

  • Leonard „Bananas“ Barr (* 27. September 1903 in , West Virginia; † 22. November 1980 in Burbank, Kalifornien) war ein US-amerikanischer Schauspieler. Leonard Barr arbeitete zunächst in den Stahlwerken von Steubenville und Cincinnati, wo er nach Feierabend Tanzunterricht nahm. Der Arbeit im Stahlwerk kehrte er bereits in den 1920er Jahren den Rücken um seinen Lebensunterhalt mit Auftritten in Vaudeville-Shows zu bestreiten. Später gründete er mit der Tänzerin Virginia Estes das Tanzduo Barr and Estes. Mit der von beiden entwickelten komischen Tanznummer The Lunatics of the Dance tingelten sie jahrelang durch das Land. Leonard Barr, der mit Spitznamen Bananas (der Verrückte) genannt wurde, war mütterlicherseits der Onkel von Dean Martin und hatte auch ein paar Auftritte in Sendungen des Komikerduos Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis in den 1950er Jahren, und in den späten 1960er und frühen 1970er Jahren in der The Dean Martin Show. Eine kleine Nebenrolle spielte er 1953 in dem Film Starr vor Angst mit Dean Martin und Jerry Lewis in den Hauptrollen. Barr hatte einen kurzen Cameo-Auftritt in Der Clou. Bekannt wurde er auch für die Rolle des Shady Tree im James Bond Film Diamantenfieber. Der 77-jährige Leonard Barr erlitt am 28. Oktober 1980 in einem Hotelzimmer des West Hollywood Hotel einen Schlaganfall und starb am 22. November 1980 in einem Krankenhaus in Burbank (Los Angeles County). (de)

Barr's comedic schtick was one-liners; told with a straight face, and sometimes deliberately repeating a punchline. He is perhaps best remembered internationally for his appearance in the 1971 James Bond film Diamonds Are Forever in which he played Shady Tree, a stand-up comedian and smuggler in Las Vegas who was assassinated by henchmen Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd. He also appeared in The Odd Couple usually in the non-dialogue New York street scenes in the first season or 5 episodes later in 1975 with dialogue and, albeit unnamed, on an episode of M*A*S*H as a USO comedian. He also made numerous guest appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson; as well as his nephew's own variety show. Cameron Crowe briefly depicted Barr as a foul-mouthed real-life character in Almost Famous, his semi-autobiographical film of 2000. (en)
