Ronald Colman gives a great performance, 4 November 2002
7/10
Author: artroraback from Chatham,NY

Ronald Colman gives a terrific performance as a stage actor who really gets into his work. When he plays Othello on the stage he takes on the persona with dire results. Good film with a great supporting cast. Well worth watching.
