Raymond Griffith Facts
His parents, James Henry Griffith and Mary Guichard (she was born in France), along with his grandfather, Gerald Griffith, and great grandfather, Thomas Griffith, were all actors.

While rarely credited as a writer, Griffith did, in fact, apparently co-write more movies than he appeared in as an actor.

Although Griffith had a long career as an actor, writer and producer, he is probably best known to modern audiences for his small but pivotal role in All Quiet on the Western Front (1930) as the French soldier who takes cover in the same shell crater as German soldier Lew Ayres, who stabs him with a bayonet and is then forced to spend the night watching him die.
