And not just any Brits... Leslie Howard died on some sort of mission for his government in the war. Legolas Send a noteboard - 14/09/2011 11:08:26 PM
Not really espionage, I don't think, but something to do with flying to neutral Lisbon and using his influence as a famous actor there, or something... then the Germans shot down the plane he was travelling back on.

As for Vivien Leigh, she got not one but two Oscars for playing major roles in major American works of fiction, the other for her lead in A Streetcar Named Desire.

Of course, loads of Hollywood stars of that time were foreign-born (and even more of the directors).

I explained to you why a majority of America would not be comfortable. LadyLorraine - 15/09/2011 01:27:19 PM 514 Views

No. I try to pretend Valkyrie doesn't exist. Legolas - 14/09/2011 10:12:25 PM 649 Views
Can I ask why? You've got me curious. Nate - 14/09/2011 10:33:57 PM 554 Views
