"Top 10 Charles Laughton Films | Happy Birthday Laughton"
In "Ruggles of Red Gap," as an English butler transported to the Wild West, Laughton reads up on American history and the various US Presidents. Remembering that Lincoln had declared "all men are created equal" he then tells his employers that he nolonger wants to be a butler and recites the Gettysburg Address from memory in a local saloon bar. It's really rather moving ...

Laughton only ever directed one film, and that was, "Night of the
Hunter" with Robert Mitchum.
The film was not received very well, and this convinced him not to
direct any more.
Father Time always has a way of correcting mistaken thoughts.
