His "Fu Manchu" flick, "The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu", of
course. But are you sure it was an "A"? And He only played two 
roles (Nayland Smith and Fu Manchu) in the flick. 

The cottage-balloon, with the imperturbable butler as pilot and
navigator, was one of the best parts of the flick. But, then, so
was every other part of the flick.
