What is recorded here
Hurd Hatfield died in Rathcormac, County Cork, Ireland on December 26, 1998 at age 81. He played Dorian Gray in the 1945 film, a role that made him famous yet isolated him in Hollywood because his darkness offended polite society. After decades of stage and screen work, he left behind the American glare and chose a quiet Irish town where strangeness no longer required explanation.
