Today is the anniversary of the death in 1967 of Claude Rains, one of my favorite actors. FilmReference.com has an extensive list of resources and an overview of his career. There is a Facebook fan page. Though nominated 4 times, he never won an Academy Award.
Films I've seen and blogged (many of which are available online):
The Invisible Man (1933)
The Prince and the Pauper (1937)
The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938)
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
The Wolf Man (1941)
Casablanca (1942)
Mr. Skeffington (1944)
Passage to Marseille (1944)
Notorious (1946)
Where Danger Lives (1950)
Battle of the Worlds (1961)

I like Claude Raines. I think his performance in "Mr. Smith..." is his best that I have seen.
