Brian Aherne was handsome, debonair and instantly likeable on the screen. A successful actor in both movies and the theater, Aherne was a longtime friend of depressive George Sanders (no mean accomplishment) about whom he wrote the excellent biography, "A Dreadful Man: A Personal Intimate Book About George Sanders."
What Every Woman Knows (1934)
Aherne was also a pilot and owned his own plane. A multi-talented gent was he. And, following a Bette Davis theme for the week, was quoted as saying, "Surely nobody but a mother could have loved Bette Davis at the height of her career."
