I know I've seen a still of a cherubic curly haired (ala Mary
Pickford) picture of Anger's appearance in AMSND somewhere. In the
"Anger" book? Hollywood Babylon? He looks very puckish, or at least
quite impish, in that picture. Anyway, I don't think it is merely
alleged that he appeared in that film.
