tim holt free movie download timholt. Born Charles John Holt III (1919 – 1973). Tim Holt was the son of actor Jack Holt. After five minor roles, in 1938, at the age of nineteen, Holt had a major role under star Harry Carey in The Law West of Tombstone . It was the first of the many Western films he made during the 1940s. At the same time, his sister, Jennifer Holt , also became a leading star in the Western film genre. After playing young Lieutenant Blanchard in the 1939 classic Stagecoach, Tim Holt had one of the leading roles in Orson Welles's The Magnificent Ambersons (1942). He also starred as a Nazi in Hitler's Children (1943). By the early 1940s, Tim Holt had his own cowboy series at RKO, replacing the muscular George O'Brien who had retired from films. In the Holt westerns, there were several sidekick groupings --- singer Ray Whitley, Lee 'Lasses' White, whiskered codger Emmett Lynn, and Cliff 'Ukelele Ike' Edwards . Holt did eighteen RKO westerns which were released from 1940-1943, and his first starring role was WAGON TRAIN (RKO, 1940). One of his better films from this period is THE BANDIT TRAIL (RKO, 1941) which features Whitley and 'Lasses' White. During WWII, Tim became a decorated combat veteran of World War II, flying in the Pacific Theatre with the United States Army Air Forces as a B-29 bombardier. Holt was wounded over Tokyo on the last day of World War II and was awarded the Purple Heart. He returned to films after the war, appearing as Virgil Earp to Henry Fonda's Wyatt Earp in John Ford's Western My Darling Clementine . Holt was next cast in the role that he is probably most remembered for, in a film in which his father also appeared in a small part, portraying Bob Curtin to Humphrey Bogart's Fred C. Dobbs in John Huston's The Treasure of the Sierra Madre , made in 1946 and released in 1948. After the war, Holt continued his western career at RKO, and his films from this period rank at the top of the B western genre. Richard "Chito" Martin was Holt's saddle pal during the entire group. He made two dozen more Western films until 1952, when the genre's popularity waned. He was then absent from the screen for five years until he starred in a less-than-successful horror film, The Monster That Challenged the World , in 1957. He then appeared in only two more motion pictures over the next fourteen years. 1. Laddie (1940) - Tim Holt.

To placate her father, Pamela begs Laddie to consider practicing a profession other than farming, thus insulting both Laddie and his family. 2.

The first Tim Holt comic appeared in Magazine Enterprises' anthology series A-1 Comics with issue #14 in 1948. It had a drawn cover with an upper left corner medallion containing a head shot of Tim. Of course, Tim's movie series had started many years earlier in 1940, and after wartime interruption (he won the Distinguished Flying Cross), the films resumed in 1947. A-1 Comics #17 and 19 also featured Tim now with photo covers (19 has a photo back cover, too). With the next issue, (#4 dated January/February 1949,) Tim's series became independent of the A-1 series. The photo covers continued as did the phrases 'Cowboy Star of the Movies' and 'Western Adventures' on each cover. Issue 5 and 6 also had photo back covers. The photo front covers lasted through issue 16, returning one last time with issue 18. In issue 17, Tim was back to an upper left head shot and the rest of the cover presented a striking drawing of the new comic sensation, the Ghost Rider! Issue 19 had a drawn cover of Tim with the photo medallion again. The comic ended with a page showing a cowboy all in red, wearing a Durango Kid style mask. 'Coming next issue', it said. Sure enough, with issue 20, Tim's photo-medallion was back, along with a new tagline under the logo: 'Tim Holt As Red Mask'. Tim hadn't been replaced exactly, instead, he had become Red Mask, and so he stayed through the last issue #41 of April/May 1954. The one exception was issue 29 which featured a full-length black and white photo of Tim on Lightning against a red background with a drawing of Red Mask in a medallion for a change. With issue 42, the comic changed it's name to Red Mask , but now there was a photo medallion of someone (Tim?) in a red hat, wearing the new Lone Ranger-style red mask. The last issue was #54 dated Sept 1957.
