Trivia
In real life Herbert Lom was Hungarian-born and of part Jewish extraction, was extremely well educated and could speak Hungarian and Czech as well as German and English. He caught the acting bug in his late teens and fled to England nine months before the outbreak of WWII where he was soon in demand as a film actor due to his ability to convincingly play a range of different nationalities.
