| dbo:abstract | إليزه أميس (بالإنجليزية: Elsie Ames) هي ممثلة أمريكية، ولدت في 18 مايو 1902، وتوفيت في 3 مايو 1983. (ar) Elsie Ames (May 18, 1902 – May 3, 1983) was an American comic dancer and film actress. Between 1937 and 1974 she acted in 15 films. She is best known as the female film partner of Buster Keaton. Ames was half of the vaudeville team Ames and Arno, doing a slapstick adagio routine. Theirs was a good, standard vaudeville act, as Variety reported in 1938: "Elsie Ames and Nick Arno make every second of their knockabout routine count for laughs. Nothing seems left to chance. Also, a mid-center walloper is the encore." Ames and Arno performed their act on film in the Bing Crosby musical Double or Nothing (1937). Elsie Ames's willingness to take pratfalls and physical punishment in the name of comedy made her a natural candidate for Columbia Pictures' short subjects. Producer Jules White had a host of male physical comedians under contract, but no female comics who could withstand the films' high slapstick content. In 1940 White hired Ames, who stood a little over five feet tall, as a foil for 5' 5" Buster Keaton. She worked with Keaton in five of his 10 Columbia shorts, and received featured billing. After the final short in the series, She's Oil Mine, Keaton let his Columbia contract lapse, leaving Ames idle. White tried to keep her Columbia career going, co-starring her with Harry Langdon (in two shorts) and then El Brendel (in one final short). She left Columbia in 1942. She made two further movies, both with Nick Arno, doing their dance specialty. (en) |
