Olivier later noted in his memoir, Confessions of an Actor, that A new young actor in the company of exceptional promise named Anthony Hopkins was understudying me and walked away with the part of Edgar like a cat with a mouse between its teeth.
Olivier je kasnije napisao u svojim memoarima, Confessions of an Actor, "Novi mladi obećavajući glumac zvan Anthony Hopkins me zamjenjivao i odigrao ulogu Edgara kao mačka s mišom u zubima."
