Biography

Philip Stainton, a renowned British actor, took his first breath on April 9, 1908, in the charming town of King's Norton, nestled in the picturesque county of Worcestershire, England, United Kingdom.

Throughout his illustrious career, Stainton distinguished himself as a versatile thespian, leaving an indelible mark on the world of cinema. His impressive repertoire includes memorable roles in notable films such as The Ladykillers, a 1955 comedy classic directed by Alexander Mackendrick, Mogambo, a 1953 adventure drama directed by John Ford, and Moby Dick, a 1956 epic adaptation of Herman Melville's timeless novel.

Tragically, Stainton's life was cut short when he passed away on August 1, 1961, in Melbourne, Australia, leaving behind a legacy that continues to captivate audiences to this day.
