The
actress Pauline Starke began her film career as an extra, so in "The Claws
of Green" (14) and in a dancing scene of D.W. Griffith's movie "Intolerance"
(16). It followed other smaller parts in "Puppets" (16) and "The Rummy"
(16).
When the director Frank Borzage became aware of Pauline Starke this
marked the beginning of a great film career in which she impersonated bigger
support roles and leading roles.
To her early successes belong "The Regenerates" (17), "The Argument"
(18), "The Man Who Woke Up" (18), "The Atom" (18), "The Fall of Babylon"
(19) and "Eyes of Youth" (19).
She managed the final breakthrough in the 20's where she took part in
many productions.
To her well-known movies of those years belong "Dangerous Days" (20),
"The Untamed" (20), "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" (21),
"The Forgotten Woman" (21), "My Wild Irish Rose" (22), "The Little Girl
Next Door" (23), "Arizona Express" (24), "Dante's Inferno" (24), "The Devil's
Cargo" (25), "Bright Lights" (25), "Love's Blindness" (26), "Women Love
Diamonds" (27), "The Viking" (28) and "The Mysterious Island" (29).
Her film career drew to a close with the rise of the talkies. It only
followed sporadical appearances in "Twenty Dollars a Week" (35) and "She
Knew All the Answers" (41).
Pauline Starke was married with the director Jack White and the actor
George Sherwood.
