Up in Smoke
I've always found the candid photos of Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi very curious.
Karloff always seems so relaxed ... one might say disengaged. Lugosi, on the other hand, always looks so concentrated and intense.
Karloff, a heavy smoker, succumbed to emphysema, while Lugosi to heart failure.
Though I never knew either, I miss them both.
