Kenneth More here repeats his stardom-making role as Freddie Page, whom he had played on-stage opposite Peggy Ashcroft in the original 1952 production (a performance which led him to be compared to Marlon Brando by no less a critic than Kenneth Tynan). He would play Freddie a third time in the 1955 film version, opposite Vivien Leigh.
