Alberto Moravia is something of a forgotten figure now. Yet when he died, in 1990, he was often considered to have been one of Italy’s leading novelists of the twentieth century. In a review of the posthumously published draft of a novel Moravia had been working on since 1950, Michael P. McDonald suggests that the authors’s reluctance to complete and publish his novel at the time was provoked by the fierce reception given to his study of political disaffection Il conformista when it was published in 1951.

Often typecast as a menacing figure, Peter Lorre achieved Hollywood fame first as a featured player and later as a character actor who trademarked his screen performances with a delicately strung balance between good and evil. His portrayal of the grisly child murderer in Fritz Lang’s masterpiece M (1931) catapulted him to international fame. Lang said of Lorre: "He gave one of the best performances in film history and certainly the best in his life." Today, the Hungarian-born actor is also recognized for his riveting performances in The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934), The Maltese Falcon (1941), and Casablanca (1942).
