More on John Mills
"Sir John Mills was the first actor cast in this movie. He happened to be vacationing in Rome when Sir David Lean and Robert Bolt began developing the project. Lean (who lived in Venice at the time) met Mills in Rome and offered him the role of the village idiot. Mills accepted, though he remarked that he felt the role was "typecasting". "
