Leo Mostovoy on AllMovie

A dapper-looking character actor from Russia, Leo Mostovoy played Fydor, one of "the usual suspects" in Casablanca (1942), perhaps an early highlight in a screen career that was spent mainly playing excitable chefs, headwaiters, pawnbrokers, and the like. Mostovoy, who also appeared frequently on early television, played a chef once again in his last credited film, Serenade (1956).
