Abstract
Micheal MacLiammoir — an old friend of mine as well as an actor I greatly admire — is not a man that one could suspect of Nazi sympathies. But he is a witty and patriotic Irishman, and I daresay that when in a play in London a couple of years ago he was called on in the character of Hitler to speak some rousing words against English Imperialism, he took a certain sardonic pleasure in doing so. It is always agreeable to attack something violently, and then be able with perfect honesty to explain that you didn’t really mean it.
