Introduced by Humphrey Burton The Westmores of Hollywood - The Story of a Dynasty
Back in the days of silent films an actor, who had accidentally shaved off half of his moustache, had his job saved for him by an English barber who glued it back on. The barber was George Westmore and he and his sons virtually invented the art of movie make-up. At one point a Westmore was in charge of all the important Hollywood make-up departments. Frank Westmore is the last surviving son. His own credits include The Ten Commandments and The Towering Inferno.
At his house in Los Angeles he told Omnibus about the family triumphs including the dashing Douglas Fairbanks ' hair cut, The Hunchback of Notre Dame's wild eye and Shirley MacLaine 's geisha good looks.
