Claude Rains was an acclaimed British-American stage and screen actor who is widely regarded as one of Hollywood's greatest character stars. He made a spectacular cinematic debut by starring as the titular mad scientist in Universal's sci-fi horror classic The Invisible Man (1933), a role that relied entirely on his distinct voice until the final frame. Rains went on to earn four Academy Award nominations, delivering iconic performances as a corrupt senator in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) and a sympathetic Nazi agent in Alfred Hitchcock's romantic thriller Notorious (1946). His most famous and enduring cinematic legacy remains his brilliant turn as the witty, cynical, and ultimately redemptive Captain Louis Renault in the 1942 masterpiece Casablanca. Later in his career, he continued to anchor major studio epics, notably playing the cold-hearted diplomat Mr. Dryden in David Lean's multi-Oscar-winning masterpiece Lawrence of Arabia
