yes he was astonishing in Ryan's Daughter. But I'll best remember his golden oldies like 'Ice Cold in Alex' and 'Great Expectations' and 'The Colditz Story' of course.
Ice Cold in Alex is a great movie. The baby and the battleship is my fave - he was so sweet in it - God rest him. All those years with his wife, did his service in the army...Great actor, great man

Probably The Singer Not The Song, the Western he was in with Dirk Bogarde, and in some ways a precursor for the Clint Eastwood character a few years later. Also Scott In The Antartic, Hobson's Choice and Great Expectations, by far the best adaptation of this Dickens novel.
