From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Lucile Watson (27 May 1879 - 24 June 1962) was a Canadian actress. Born in Quebec City, her first film role was in the 1916 silent film The Girl with Green Eyes, a film version of the play she had performed in on Broadway. She did not appear in another movie unil 1930, when she had an uncredited role in The Royal Family of Broadway.
Watson was primarily a stage actress, starring in such plays as Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines, Heartbreak House, Ghosts, The Importance of Being Earnest, Pride and Prejudice and Watch on the Rhine. In 1943, she recreated her role in the last play for Hollywood, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
