Έλινορ Πάρκερ

Η Έλινορ Πάρκερ (αγγλικά: Eleanor Jean Parker, 26 Ιουνίου 1922 – 9 Δεκεμβρίου 2013) ήταν Αμερικανίδα ηθοποιός που εμφανίστηκε σε περίπου 80 ταινίες και τηλεοπτικές σειρές. Ηθοποιός με ιδιαίτερη ευστροφία, αποκαλούνταν Woman of a Thousand Faces από τον Νταγκ Μακλίλαντ, βιογράφο της Πάρκερ υπό τον ίδιο τίτλο.

Σε ηλικία 18 ετών, η Πάρκερ υπέγραψε συμβόλαιο με την Warner Brothers (1941). Ήταν τρεις φορές υποψήφια για Όσκαρ Α' Γυναικείου Ρόλου την δεκαετία του 1950: για τις ταινίες Σάρκες χωρίς ψυχή (1950), Αστυνομική ιστορία (1951) και Τα φώτα της όπερας (1955). Ο ρόλος της στο Σάρκες χωρίς ψυχή της χάρισε το βραβείο Volpi Cup Καλύτερης Ηθοποιού στο Διεθνές Φεστιβάλ Κινηματογράφου Βενετίας. Ένας από τους πιο μνημειώδεις ρόλους της ήταν της βαρόνης Έλσα φον Σρέντερ στην ταινία Η μελωδία της ευτυχίας (1965).
