And, well, you can't go wrong with Peter Sellers! I still have to watch this original version!<br />From Ronald Colman, I really recommned the film that gave him an Oscar: A Double Life. From Madeleine I recommend the film I've written about, The World Moves On (shameless propaganda, I know).

My friends didn't believe me. They always thought I was kinda weird anyway because I always called actors by their real names and not their characters.<br /><br />Maybe you'll get some Madeleine Carroll recommendations through the blogathon.
