With Dirk Bogarde I was thinking specifically of "The 
Singer Not the Song".  I'm not sure about the others.  
With Peter Ustinov, I must have been thinking of him as 
Hercule Poirot.  And Margaret Hamilton for her looks, 
but not as the Wicked Witch of the West.  I've seen her 
on some old late night movies I can't even remember the 
name of.  I don't know why Rod Steiger for Scrimgeour.  
It was just a feeling.  A movie I can't remember the name 
of--not "In the Heat of the Night" I don't think.  I love 
Rod Steiger because he was so different in every role so 
it's hard to say what about Scrimgeour made me think of 
Steiger, but he did.
