Ronald Charles Colman (9 February 1891 – 19 May 1958) was an English actor, popular during the 1930s and 1940s. He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for A Double Life (1947) and received nominations for Random Harvest (1942) and Bulldog Drummond/Condemned (1929, nominated for his work in both). Colman starred in several classic films, including A Tale of Two Cities (1935), Lost Horizon (1937) and The Prisoner of Zenda (1937).
He was born in Richmond, Surrey, England, as Ronald Charles Colman, the second son and fourth child of Charles Colman and his wife Marjory Read Fraser. His siblings included Eric, Edith and Marjorie. He was educated at boarding school in Littlehampton, where he discovered that he enjoyed acting, despite his shyness. He intended to study engineering at Cambridge, but his father's sudden death from pneumonia in 1907 made it financially impossible.
He became a well-known amateur actor and was a member of the West Middlesex Dramatic Society in 1908–09. He made his first appearance on the professional stage in 1914.

Another early film role by Kay.
I'm tied to you just like I'm tied to the mast
You know I'm too pround to even ask
And where I'm going I just can't see
But seeing's believing
I'm chained to the feeling.
And I just keep on falling
I just keep on falling
Keeping me crawling girl
I'm just falling now
Back to beginnings
Forever a feeling
Keep me believing
And follow the feeling now.
A poet with you when you sing me that verse
A manmade seed in your heavenly Earth
And where we're going we just can't see
But seeing's believing I'm chained to the feeling.
And I just keep on falling
I just keep on falling
Keeping me crawling girl
I'm just falling now
Back to beginnings
Forever a feeling
Keep me believing
And follow the feeling now.
Wow just a feeling
Just a feeling
