his performance was riveting in M.

His career took an interesting arc due to the European upheaval and how Hollywood
decided to utilize his talents.

He was one of those actors that made every second of a role (no matter how"small"), big and memorable.

How he fit into, say, Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon, A&OL, et al and matched performances with and likely
helped elevate them with SO MANY GREATS is testimony to his brilliance.

I think I need to find a biography on him.
