Ronald Sinclair

Ronald Sinclair began his movie career at age 11 as Ra Hould, when he appeared in Down on the Farm (1935), a contender for New Zealand’s first feature-length drama made with sound. The following year he went to Hollywood, where MGM changed his name to Ronald Sinclair for movie Thoroughbreds Don’t Cry. After war service with the US Army he worked for more than two decades as a film editor.

I am not a second Freddie Bartholomew. I am myself and nobody else. Ronald Sinclair in an NZ Herald interview, 4 December 1937
