Came and brushed death thru her hair with loving strokes
Telling her pretty lies and flowery stories of a
Place where nothing hurts and no one knows
Oh...
We're imitating angels...
And we got a long long way to go...
Sail a sad ship across the sea out to the edge of this world
And I ain't coming back cuz I didn't leave nothin' behind
All the old crowd still hangs out imitating angels
But I ain't found a halo here no matter how I tried
And I tried !
We're imitating angels...
nd we got a long long way to go...
Angels are waiting, and praying for me...
I know those angels are waiting for me
We're imitating angels...
And we got a long long way to go..."

This video is actually several minutes shorter than my original two versions due to You Tubes time allotment. I've edited out all the interviewed celebrities, biographers and the like, left as many of Peters' film clips and his still images as I could from the original film, added an edited audio theme from the 'M' movie trailer clip, two Rammstein songs, Klavier and Alter Mann, mixed it up slightly and made this video as a tribute to his career and life.
'Master of Menace' from the generous Peter Lorre video library of Ladylove1972
Klavier
They say to me
unlock this door
the curiosity becomes a scream
what could be behind it
behind this door
stands a piano
the keys are dusty
the strings are out of tune
behind this door
she sits at the piano
but she doesn't play anymore
oh, that was so long ago
There, at the piano
I listened to her
and if she began to play
I would hold my breath
She said to me
I'll always stay with you
but it only seemed
that she played for me alone
I poured her blood
in the fire of my rage
I locked the door
they asked for her
There, at the piano
I listened to her
and if she began to play
I would hold my breath
There, at the piano
I stood beside her
it seemed
she played for me alone
The door is open
I heard the mother plea
The father struck out at me
They tore her from her chair
No one believed me there
This is so insane
from sorrow and the stench
There, at the piano
I listened to her
and if she began to play
I would hold my breath
There, at the piano
she listened to me
and when I began to play
she held her breath
Alter Mann
He waits for the midday's wind
the wave comes and lies down wearily
with a fan every day
the old one makes the water smooth
I throw the stone for fun
the water moves in circles
the old one looks sadly at me
and swept it smooth again
In the white sand, the old man
trembling, smokes his pipe
only the water and I know
why he needs this fan
Premonition sleeps like a volcano
hesitating, I asked him then
his head bent, it seemed he slept
before he died he said
The water shall be your mirror
only when it is smooth will you see
how much fairy tale is left for you
and you will plead for salvation
The fan pressed against his body
his hand stiffens with rigor mortis
they had to break his fingers
the fan stays back in the sand
I call the old one every day
for him to save me here
I stay back in the midday's wind
and I can read in the fan
The water shall be your mirror
only when it is smooth will you see
how much fairy tale is left for you
and you will plead for salvation Auteur : sixsticks Tags: peter lorre life  | | George Costigan's excellent Lorre (Greek Interpreter -1985) - 458 sec Thanks, Nancy, for the amazing research! :)
George Costigan plays the bespectacled, cane-wielding baddie Wilson Kemp in the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes episode "The Greek Interpreter". In the show, he and his partner in crime kidnap a Greek man so that they can inherit the victim's sister's money. Costigan himself stated that he studied the role of Lorre's Joel Cairo to adopt his mannerisms and accent for the part. Obviously he does a marvelous job, doing an impersonation of Lorre that is neither simpering nor hysterical but merely adopting the sleek, menacing, and nervous habits of the amazing Mr. Cairo.
In this scene, a Greek interpreter relays to Sherlock Holmes, Watson, and Mycroft his frightening evening of translating between the kidnapped man and the baddies.

This is a skit from a TV show in 1963 called "Fractured Flickers", with Hans Conried. In the show, they take excerpts from old movies (mostly silent films) and put their own story and dialogue to them, often with zany results. Here, they do a parody of "M" with Peter Lorre. :) Auteur : ladylove1972 Tags:Peter Lorre Hans Conried Fractured Flickers "M" Fritz Lang  | | Peter Lorre - The Pawnbroker (Crime and Punishment - 1935) - 330 sec Love at first sight! Raskolnikov (Lorre) meets Sonya (Marian Marsh), a prostitute who is trying to sell her Bible to an old pawnbroker to make ends meet.
To perform in Crime and Punishment, a story by the brilliant Russian author Dostoevsky, was always a dream for Peter Lorre. He never felt tall enough or handsome enough to play Raskolnikov, but he adapted the movie as his vehicle to stardom in the USA after leaving Germany behind him. They would only allow him to do so if he agreed to play the psychopath in Mad Love, which he reluctantly agreed to.

Occasionally he slips into a Lorre impersonation, which I feel he should have used for the entire part. But whatever. Enjoy!

Auteur : ladylove1972 Tags: Peter Lorre Jack Benny Joanie Sommers Mel Blanc Dave Willock Classic Comedy TV  | | Peter Lorre - Captain Chang (They Met in Bombay - 1941) - 251 sec Meldrick (Clark Gable) and Anya (Rosalind Russell), two jewel thieves fleeing from the law, seek sanctuary aboard a ship bound for Hong Kong piloted by the Chinese CPT Chang (Lorre).
It's interesting to note that unlike Mr. Moto, where Mr. Lorre wears only subtle eye make-up to enhance his exotic features, he does wear prosthetics over his eyes for CPT Chang. To me, his mannerisms seem very much like those of Janos in "Face Behind the Mask."
