Nicky and the Lost Templar (Part 4): Gift of Gab

... continuing from my previous post, I left off with an investigation of two notable persons involved int the film "Gift of Gab":

• Edmund Dantes Lowe (March 3, 1890 – April 21, 1971)
• Gloria Frances Stewart (July 4, 1910 – September 26, 2010)

This post continues the investigation, focussing on all other notable persons who worked on the film as per the films wiki page.  Note the following information from their respective wiki pages:

• Ruth Etting (November 23, 1897 – September 24, 1978)
• William Henry Pratt (23 November 1887 – 2 February 1969^[1])
• Carl Laemmle, Jr. (April 28, 1908 – September 24, 1979)

The first two are born on the same day... butt not just any day, November 23rd also happens to be my mothers birthday hence we have an addition to the "November 23" and the "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster.  The first (Etting) and last (Laemmle) both died on the same day, hence generating a "September 24" pattern-cluster.  Continuing on...:

• Alexander Humphreys Woollcott (January 19, 1887 – January 23, 1943) 
• Hugh O'Connell (January 19, 1898– August 4,1943) 

These next two are also born on the same day, butt not just any day, January 19 is my brothers birthday and so we have another addition to the  "Targeting Family Birthdays" pattern-cluster, as well as forming a "January 19" pattern-cluster. 

• Helen Vinson (September 17, 1907 – October 7, 1999) 
• Andrew Vabre "Andy" Devine (October 7, 1905 – February 18, 1977^[1]) 

Vinson died on Devine's birthday, hence generating an "October 7" pattern-cluster.  

• Victor Frederick Moore (February 24, 1876 – July 23, 1962) 
• Wini Shaw (February 25, 1907 – May 2, 1982)
• Karl W. Freund, A.S.C. (January 16, 1890 – May 3, 1969)

These next three form a "February 24, 25/Date Sequence" and a "May 2, 2/Date Sequence" pattern-clusters. 

• Philip G. Epstein (August 22, 1909 – February 7, 1952)
• Alice White (August 24, 1904 – February 19, 1983)
• Phil Baker (August 26, 1896 – November 30, 1963)

As for the three above, they form a pattern a sequence of 2 off from each others birthday, and forming a "August 22,__, 24,__, 26/Date Sequence" pattern-cluster.  Keep in mind that August 25th and 26th had cropped up in two of yesterdays posts re: 

• MiBfelder RIIP 
• Alby... All By/Buy 

As well, August 25th is my granddaughter's birthday, and for the record, she is legally blind in one eye, with a condition known as Amblyopia (also called lazy eye).  So given that, the sequence is actually  an "August 22,__, 24, 25, 26/Date Sequence" pattern-cluster  and now all that's needed is an August 23rd to crop up to bridge the gap.  

• Gene Austin (June 24, 1900 – January 24, 1972)

Austin was   born on the 24th and died on the 24th.  exactly 6 months apart... keep in mind that January begins the first month of the 12 month calendar and June begins the "second" half.  January is named for the "twin" headed god named "Janus" and June is also represented Gemini..."twins" in the astrology scheme of things.  

• Tom Hanlon (20 May 1967) 

Of particular interest is Tom Hanlon... given that his name Tom means "twin" in origin, AND... he's the only one involved in the film who isn't dead!!  This next actress in the film died on the anniversary of the films release date:  

• Ethel Waters (October 31, 1896 – September 1, 1977)

Release dates	September 1, 1934

As for the other actors and production team in the film, even though they don't stand out in particular (not yet anyway), I have listed just the same: 

Béla Ferenc Dezső Blaskó (20 October 1882 – 16 August 1956)Rian James (October 3, 1899 – April 26, 1953) Louis Breslow ( July 18, 1900 – November 10, 1987)Jerry Wald (September 16, 1911 – July 13, 1962)
