I thought her character in "The Spirit" or the Cristina from "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" might have been the trick. At least I didn't have to put up The Black Widow.
I don't. However, I wanted to give a few hours in case someone else got it. Also, when Wordpup saw what I wrote, he loved the answer (it was a quote from the RSC's version of "Hamlet"- the "R" there stands for "Reduced", not "Royal".)
Good guess, but no. It's probably sad I know Ustinov mostly from his appearances with the Muppets. (He hosted an episode and did a cameo in "The Great Muppet Caper.")
The historical figures I recognize, of course, but Dr. Loveless, Guy Pringle, and Kurt Wallander all seem very familiar. I just can't place them.

Mrs Wolf got it from Wallander, but might have gotten it from Poirot. (Actually, I was surprised she didn't rattle it off from Poirot.) I might have gotten it from Dr Loveless.
If none of the names in the last post didn't give it away (one would have for me, 2 would have for Mrs Wolf), then look over that list. At least 1 name off the last set should point you in the right direction.
Finally, I remembered that Loveless was the villain in "The Wild, Wild West" movie.
Kenneth Branagh?
George
Yes. Played Poirot in the most recent "Murder on the Orient Express", Gilderoy Lockhart in Harry Potter 2, etc. Was getting ready to start running a long list of Shakespearean roles to accompany Iago and Benedick.

He was looking for it to use as a clue in a game round a few weeks after he was looking for it. Meanwhile, I hope he posts the next one soon.

Well ... yeah. I was about 15 when it came out. (Saw it a couple of years later, when I was in college.) Fonda DID win the Best Actress Oscar for the performance. George

I didn't know her character's name but Christina didn't leave me enough of a clue.

Do you have some sort of dysphasia?
It is, obviously, Hamlet. I'll give it to you.
