  3. Brilliant character actor Peter Lorre (1904-1964) born in Hungary of Jewish descent. Having already gained fame for his performance in 1934 German film M directed by Fritz Lange, Lorre's first English language film was Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much. At the time Lorre was living in London, having left Germany to escape the Nazi rise in power. He learned his English lines phonetically. American films Mad Love & Crime & Punishment soon followed as well as some iconic horror film performances

  8. Wicked Witch of the West

    Producer Mervyn Leroy's original idea for casting the Wicked Witch for The Wizard of Oz was inspired by Disney's adaption of Snow White - he wanted to make her slinky + seductive. He thought he'd found the perfect choice with actress Gale Sondergaard who'd won an Oscar the previous year for her Best Supporting Actress performance in his film Anthony Adverse.
    Others however disagreed, thinking witches should be ugly. They attempted to give Sondergaard 'The Ugly Treatment' with make-up, but the actress herself decided she no longer wanted the role.

    "In those days I was not about to make myself ugly! I have no regrets".

    Interview, 1980 with Dick Cavett when she was 81
