Constance Collier was an impassive British-born stage star that came to Hollywood in the 1930s as a drama couch. She inevitability began acting for films, portraying a series of grand dames with varying degrees of eccentricity about them in films such as Dinner at Eight (1933) and Little Lord Fauntleroy (1936). Her alabaster features could convey every emotion from scorn to sorrow with the minimum of movement.
