How Many Proprietors Are in the Movie, and Who Plays Them?


The IMDb credits list three people as "proprietor": Olaf Hytten, Forrester Harvey, and Yorke Sherwood. It does not say what they are proprietors of (pubs, stores, etc.), but at least two of them seem to be pub/hotel proprietors. I suspect that Yorke Sherwood (an actor I don't know) is the proprietor at the pub where the soldiers are singing the song at closing time; and the proprietor of the hotel, early in the movie, who refuses to give Tyrone Power and Joan Fontaine a room, appears to be Olaf Hytten (but I'd like confirmation on that). I can't, however, find any scene in which Forrester Harvey (an actor I generally recognize on sight) is the proprietor of anything. Is it possible that an IMDb fan simply made a mistake, and identified Forrester Harvey as the proprietor in place of Olaf Hytten? In that case, the Forrester Harvey entry should be deleted. Any suggestions or information would be welcome.
