George Macready

American actor born in 1899, specializing in suave, cultured villains. His scarred face — the result of a car accident — made him a natural for roles like the art thief Count Paul Rona in The Green Glove (1952) and the sadistic General Mireau in Kubrick's Paths of Glory (1957). He died in 1973.

A 1952 American-French film noir directed by Rudolph Maté, starring Glenn Ford as Michael Blake, a World War II veteran who returns to France to recover a priceless jeweled gauntlet — the "green glove" — he found during the Normandy invasion and hid in a village church. The treasure is also sought by suave art dealer Count Paul Rona (George Macready), whose men are willing to kill for it, while Blake is aided by a Parisian tour guide (Geraldine Brooks) and a parish priest (Cedric Hardwicke). Shot on location in postwar Paris and the south of France, the film mixes heist thriller and travelogue. Also known as The White Road and Gauntlet. It is in the public domain.
