His role as the Mandarin in 'Inn of 6th Happiness' was actually a gift. He was broke and I believe Ingrid Bergman paid for his insurance to be on the set. And since he was never bad, and given the other bizarre casting, he did pretty damn well. And of course, his last words in the film were his last words in any film made them particularly poignant. Any word on his children? I too, enjoyed Donat and just had the pleasure of introducing my sister to the 39 Steps. His role as the Mandarin in ‘Inn of 6th Happiness’ was actually a gift.
