Did You Know?

Personal Quote:

I never felt Lee Strasberg could act, and I fail to see how someone who can't act can teach acting.

Trivia:

Arriving in Hollywood in 1940 with an open mind and a European palate, Henreid's greatest culture shock was what he called the "terrible food" there at the time. He claimed that the restaurants Romanoff's, Scandia, and Chasen's were the only places in town where one could get a decent meal. See more »
