The Baby
The Baby is not credited in the actors list.Does anyone know who is he was?
shareI found an article in the Decatur Review dated December 26, 1926, in which it was reported that "eight month old Jerry Craycroft is making a name for himself in the movies. . . . he will be seen a Fox picture, Sunrise, with Janet Gaynor and George O'Brian (sic)"
I did a Social Security Death Index search for a Jerry Craycroft and found that he was born on Apr 3, 1926, Death: 27 Feb 2000.
What did I tell you? Did I exaggerate? Ziggy knows more about George O'Brien and about "Sunrise" than Brownlow, Birchard, and Hulse combined.
"Progress may have been all right once, but it has gone on too long."
Thank you! I was going to post the same question. Coincidentally, the actor died the day after my oldest child was born. The first time I watched this wonderful movie was because I was up all night with her (during her screaming infant stage) and stumbled across it on TV while passing the time.
I love that little baby in the movie. He looked a bit older than 8 months though!
