I was watching an old British film,
Light up the Sky, on Talking Pictures when I saw a face I knew, but just could not place. There were lots of well known actors and entertainers together with recognizable character actors. Not wanting to wait until the credits came up I went to the IMDB website. The
Internet Movie Data Base site is popular, and I'm sure many here have heard of it, but if not, it's well worth a visit. It covers thousands of films and TV programmes going back pretty much to the beginning. It gives casts, quotes, trivia and all manner of details about the productions. I figure it's settled a lot of family arguments.
PS: The face I'd spotted was
Sheila Hancock, her first film appearance although it was a small part. That film was made in 1960.
