Leo G. Carroll

Leo G. Carroll (October 25 1892–October 16 1972) was a British character actor, best known for his roles in several Hitchcock films and The Man from U.N.C.L.E..He was born in Weedon, Buckinghamshire to a wealthy Catholic family, who named him after the reigning pope Leo XIII. Carroll made his stage debut in 1912, and played in London and Broadway until he moved to Hollywood in 1934 to start a career in film. Once there he soon made his film debut in Sadie McKee (1934). More parts followed, often playing doctors or butlers. He made notable appearances as Marley's ghost in A Christmas Carol (1938) and as Joseph in Wuthering Heights (1939). In the 1951 film The Desert Fox: The Story of Rommel, he played a "sanitized" Gerd von Rundstedt - the film did not mention any of the war crimes Rundstedt was later charged with, instead presenting him as a tragic, resigned figure completely disillusioned with Hitler.
