The man we loved to hate. He had a voice so recognizable that most people would have named him if they simply heard it without seeing him. His demeanor was often patronizing and smacked of one that was insincere and sinister and could be equally authoritative and commanding. As a child watching his movies, I remember being scared just listening to him.

Jean Simmons
I've been in a British mood for a few posts and we shall continue a bit longer with one of the world-class in that crowd... Jean Simmons. I have loved her from the second film I ever saw her in and it has never changed. I thought nearly all of her films were great but for the handful that may not warrant that compliment, she was always fabulous.
