For 7. Laurence Olivier, the role of Szell is lightweight in comparison to the serious Shakespeare roles, it looks campy and Olivier is having fun playing up the crazy sadism. But for an indisputably lightweight and fun role, then there’s Olivier as Julius, kindhearted pickpocket and con man in"A Little Romance".
