One of those films you watch as a kid and sticks with you. I didn't know he'd directed Stir Crazy either, RIP sir.

I never knew he'd been knighted either, full of surprises.

A trend-setter, a barrier-breaker.
Impeccably spoken, actor extraordinaire.

Night/Tibbs, outstanding movies.
A lesser-known fave of mine: The Bedford Incident

There was a play on R4 a while back, about the making of & his part in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.
A very good listen.
