 Alec Guinness (qv) was spotted in costume when walking home  through the French countryside. A young boy ran up to him, yelling  "Mon père! Mon père!" ("My father! My father!") Guinness did not  speak French, so he could not correct the young boys mistake, but  was touched that the young boy apparently immediately bonded to him  on the assumption that he was a priest. Soon after the film was  released, Guinness converted to Catholicism.
