Biography

Hormis une apparition à l'occasion d'un court métrage musical de 1936, Richard Rober débute au cinéma — un petit rôle non-crédité — dans Appelez nord 777 d'Henry Hathaway (avec James Stewart et Richard Conte), sorti en 1948. Le dernier de ses vingt-neuf films américains est le western Le Fils de Géronimo de George Mashall (avec Charlton Heston), sorti en septembre 1952, près de quatre mois après sa mort prématurée, dans un accident de voiture.

Parmi ses autres films notables, mentionnons Horizons en flammes de Delmer Daves (1949, avec Gary Cooper et Jane Wyatt), La Femme à l'écharpe pailletée de Robert Siodmak (1950, avec Barbara Stanwyck et Wendell Corey), Le Cavalier de la mort d'André De Toth (1951, avec Randolph Scott et Joan Leslie), ou encore Les espions s'amusent de Josef von Sternberg (avec John Wayne et Janet Leigh), sorti en 1957, mais tourné de fin 1949 à début 1950.

Pour la télévision, il contribue à un épisode d'une série, diffusé en 1952, un mois avant sa mort.

Au théâtre, Richard Rober joue à Broadway (New York) au cours des années 1940, dans une pièce, une revue et deux comédies musicales, dont un rôle en remplacement d'Howard Da Silva, dans Oklahoma ! du tandem Rogers-Hammerstein, sur une mise en scène de Rouben Mamoulian, avec Alfred Drake dans le rôle principal.

From the New York Times: "In the words of its star Leonard Nimoy, Kid Monk Baroni was the sort of film that "made unknowns out of celebrities." The young Nimoy is actually quite good as the title character, a boxer whose misshapen face has earned him the unwelcome nickname "Monk." Formerly an unregenerate street punk, Baroni is set on the proper path by parish priest Father Callahan (Richard Rober). Unfortunately, a run-in with his old gang forces Baroni to skip town. He becomes a professional pugilist under the aegis of manager Hellman (Bruce Cabot), taking out his pent-up frustrations in the ring. Able to afford plastic surgery, Baroni buys himself a handsome new face — and, with it, a dangerously oversized ego. Hoping to protect his new face from harm, Baroni washes out in the boxing ring, but redemption — and a lasting romance with Emily Brooks (Allene Roberts) -- await just around the corner. Kid Monk Baroni was well-directed by Harold Schuster, whose previous efforts included My Friend Flicka and So Dear to My Heart. A flop at the box office, the film did nothing for the career of Leonard Nimoy, who was obliged to spend the next 15 years in relative obscurity before attaining a second chance at big-time stardom with TV's Star Trek.

New York Police Sergeant John Kennedy once guarded Abraham Lincoln for 48 hours while he was campaigning for President of the United States, and came away deeply impressed by the man. Kennedy has infiltrated a cabal and discovered that an assassination attempt will be made as the president-elect makes his way by train via Baltimore to Washington, DC. His boss, Superintendent Simon G. Stroud (an uncredited Tom Powers), dismisses the threat as "hogwash", as does Caleb Jeffers (Adolphe Menjou), a militia colonel with whom Stroud is meeting. Kennedy resigns on the spot to try to foil the conspirators on his own. Having already sent a copy of his report to the Secretary of War, he telegrams Lincoln, urgently requesting a meeting in Baltimore.

Bob Corey (Gordon MacRae) is an American soldier badly wounded at the end of World War II, and undergoing a number of surgical operations on his spine at a military hospital in California. He is tended by a nurse, Julie Benson (Virginia Mayo), and they have fallen in love. Corey's military pal, Steve Connolly (Edmond O'Brien), arrives in early November to discuss plans for the ranch they plan to purchase and operate together once Corey is out of the hospital. The two men pool their G.I. benefits (totaling $40,000) to do so. Corey's final surgery is in mid-December, but Connolly does not appear at the hospital afterward to see his friend. By Christmas, Corey is still in recovery but Connolly still remains absent. One night, as Corey lies semi-conscious in bed after being administered a sleeping drug, a woman with an foreign accent (Viveca Lindfors) appears at his bedside. She says Connolly has been in a horrible accident; his spine is shattered and he wants to die, but she has refused to help him commit suicide. The woman asks Corey what to do, and he advises her to do nothing to harm Steve, and just to wait. Corey slips into unconsciousness, and the woman disappears.
