Sir Michael Scudamore Redgrave CBE (20 March 1908 – 21 March 1985) was an English stage and film actor, director, manager and author.
Redgrave was born in Bristol, Gloucestershire, England, the son of the silent film actor Roy Redgrave and actress Margaret Scudamore. He never knew his father, who left when he was only six months old to pursue a career in Australia. His mother subsequently married Captain James Anderson, a tea planter, but Redgrave greatly disliked his stepfather.
He studied at Clifton College and Magdalene College, Cambridge. Clifton College's theatre, The Redgrave Theatre, is named after him. He was a schoolmaster at Cranleigh School in Surrey before becoming an actor in 1934. There he directed the boys in Hamlet, King Lear and The Tempest, but managed to play all the leading roles himself. The "Redgrave Room" at the school was later named after him. In the new Guildford School of Acting building which opened in January 2010, there is the "Sir Michael Redgrave Studio".

The Smugglers) was sumptuously filmed in technicolor in 1947 & starred two of our greatest screen actors, Michael Redgrave & Richard Attenborough, in addition to upcoming Joan Greenwood and Jean Kent. It's non-availability and the fact that it has never been screened on UK tv are baffling. I must apologize for the poor quality of the image on this upload, this probably 3rd generation VHS copy is the only one I've ever been offered and is probably best viewed in a standard YouTube window rather than theater or full screen modes. If the current copyright holder objects, or if a dvd release is announced, I will remove the film immediately from Y...

Barnes Wallis, the inventor of the bouncing bomb, was played by Michael Redgrave in the 1955 film The Dam Busters and in an exclusive interview with the RAF Benevolent Fund, Wallis's daughter Mary Stopes Roe, reveals her thoughts on Redgrave's effort. 'Michael Redgrave did a marvelous job,' she says, 'but he was a little too vague -- too sort of "gentle old prof type" -- which wasn't really BNW's way. He was leaner and straighter and more sort of straight down the line. It was a very good picture -- I'm not complaining about it at all.' She also revealed that her father: 'Liked Michael Redgrave very much. I don't know if he thought anything [about the film] other than "it was a jolly good job, thank you."'
