I can not remember him ever having given a sub par performance. Like Peter Lorre, he always seemed to improve a picture the moment he appeared on screen. One of his best roles was as Moustache in Irma La Douce. However, the role that I remember most fondly was his scene-stealing performance as Judge Stern in Little Murders.
