There goes one of the most sincere and sensitive Englishmen who was an absolute master of his craft of acting if not the very best anywhere. Also one of recklessness that proved so costly. Remember Denholm Elliot.

I saw Mr Elliott in Clive Donner's underrated classic "Nothing But the Best" when I was in film school 35 years ago. He instantly became my favorite actor, and remains so today in 2014.

Thanks so much for this! I have been discovering Mr. Elliott's work in the last few years and have never come across anything but wonderful performances. A few of the things he says in this interview, along with a few more good ones appear on his IMDb bio page.

Note the modest heroism. Shot down over Denmark, stretched - only three survivirs from a crew of six

Incredible to hear men of his vintage speaking so casually and fleetingly about traumatic wartime experiences that, these days, might require an entire series of tear-stained reminiscences. Mr Elliot was awfully good at morally and emotionally ambiguous characters. It appears that many thinking men took this from their experiences in 'the good war'. That the accepted 'order' was deeply flawed and its proponents likewise. Had the war not occurred, he might also have made it as a romantic lead, as he was quite striking in his young days.
