Talk:Master Betty

Anachronistic expression
Regarding reception of his comeback to theatre as an adult, this article states:

The critics derided his performance, talking more about his fifteen minutes of fame than his performance at the age of twenty-one.

The expression is an anachronism, not being invented until the 20th century (by Andy Warhol) and may mislead non-English-speaking readers as being a literal representation of the time spent on the stage as a child. I would contend that at 21 the years he spent as a child actor (five to six years in all) would have been a higher proportion of his lifetime than 15 minutes in an hour.Cloptonson (talk) 18:38, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
