Carl Mahon another excellent actor of Black Cinema...Carl Mahon was one of Oscar Micheaux's early leading men. He usually played the good guy turned bad by a loose woman or an educated Negro. He was always the aspiring, likable, do-gooder who could be depended on. Always a gentleman with the ladies, a romantic who understood his troubled women and would put his life on the line for them. Most men on screen were tough, macho men, Carl was one of the few men to be gentle on screen and express his feelings without manhandling. Carl Mahon was a natural on the screen with a ready smile and a willing heart. He never ceased to please on screen. His excellent diction and speaking voice was also a plus.
