FILM 1131: THE LETTER
TRIVIA: Jack L. Warner originally
asked William Wyler to test James Stephenson for the
role of the lawyer. Wyler was surprised at how suited Stephenson was for the
part and then was astonished when Warner balked at casting him, worrying about
the stock player's lack of name recognition. Wyler insisted on keeping him,
putting him in the odd position of having to fight to cast an actor that Warner
had originally suggested.
