Leo G. Carroll

Leo G. Carroll is one of those faces you recognize long before you learn the name. An English actor whose career ran more than forty years, he turns up in six Hitchcock films, including Spellbound, Strangers on a Train, and North by Northwest, which is an absurdly strong résumé just on its own. What I appreciate is that he didn't stop at the movies: he led three television series, Topper, Going My Way, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. That blend of prestige cinema and steady TV work tells me he was a dependable craftsman, the kind of character actor productions built around.
