Biography

Au cinéma, Stuart Holmes (pseudonyme) contribue à près de cinq-cents films américains entre 1909 et 1964, dont quasiment cent-cinquante durant la période du muet (jusqu'en 1929, entre autres au sein de la Fox Film Corporation).

Parmi ses partenaires féminines de cette première période, citons Theda Bara (cinq films, dont The Clemenceau Case d'Herbert Brenon en 1915), Clara Bow (deux films), Priscilla Dean (deux films, dont Under Two Flags de Tod Browning en 1922), Alice Lake (trois films), Barbara La Marr (Le Prisonnier de Zenda de Rex Ingram, version de 1922), Gloria Swanson (Inconscience (Her Husband's Trademark) de Sam Wood en 1922), Norma Talmadge (trois films), ou encore Alice Terry (Les Quatre Cavaliers de l'Apocalypse de Rex Ingram, version de 1921, et Le Prisonnier de Zenda).

Le premier film parlant de Stuart Holmes est Captain of the Guard de John S. Robertson, sorti en 1930, où il personnifie Louis XVI, aux côtés de Laura La Plante. Par la suite et jusqu'en fin de carrière, il tient surtout des petits rôles non crédités, notamment dans le western Terreur à l'ouest (1939), le film noir Jack l'Éventreur (1944), et le film musical Chantons sous la pluie (1952). Parmi les quelques films parlants où il est crédité (outre le premier cité), mentionnons Ce n'est pas un péché de Leo McCarey (1934, avec Mae West) et La Toile d'araignée de Vincente Minnelli (1955, avec Richard Widmark et Lauren Bacall).

À la télévision, Stuart Holmes apparaît dans le premier épisode, diffusé en 1952, de la série Les Aventures de Superman. Sa présence n'est pas confirmée dans deux autres séries, en 1959.

James Peyton, a young Internal Revenue Officer of unusual resource, is sent to investigate the operations of a band of daring liquor smugglers and bring about their apprehension. In order that he may not arouse suspicion, Peyton secures employment at a village store, and while engaged in his duties as clerk he gains the friendship of Marcella, the storekeeper's daughter. But in forming the acquaintance, Peyton makes an enemy in Poole, a rough character, who has been endeavoring to win Marcella's hand. Poole is the leader of the smugglers and his association soon becomes known to the vigilant officer. One day, while delivering a basket of groceries, Peyton encounters the smugglers and is made prisoner. He is bound and led to an attic room. Struggling desperately with his bonds, Peyton manages to secure a small pocket mirror from his pocket and flashes a heliograph message to the revenue cutter down the bay. Meanwhile, Marcella, who has been expecting Peyton to call, becomes alarmed at his absence, knowing that he has recently had an altercation with Poole. She warns her cousin, Ben, and by making inquiry, they learn where the officer was seen last. Peyton is discovered in the attic window by Ben, who climbs the porch and assists the officer to escape. Hearing the disturbance, the smugglers take to flight and when the cutter comes steaming up the river in response to Peyton's message, the officer, together with Marcella and Ben, is taken aboard. There is an exciting pursuit, in which the smugglers in a tugboat cast out a net and entangle the propeller of the cutter, but the lawbreakers are finally captured and Peyton receives two rewards.
