• James Neville Mason (1909-1984) was an English actor who starred in over a hundred American and British films. Thanks in part to his recognizable, honey-sweet unctuous voice and his charming appearance, he was able to play both bad guys and lead roles. He was nominated for an Oscar three times, but won none.
