Lugosi played bit parts and character roles on stage and screen until 1927, when he landed the lead in the Broadway version of Bram Stoker's &NBi;Dracula. Lugosi reprised the role on the silver screen in 1931: The film turned him into an international star but ultimately became a millstone, forever branding him a cinematic villain.
