Lawrence Olivier
I watched a 1972 Lawrence Olivier film last night called "Sleuth." Suffice to say, it was not very good. But beyond that, having now seen two Lawrence Olivier films (the other being Rebecca), I've come to the conclusion that the good Baron really isn't that good an actor. Perhaps it is just a function of the era in which I was born--in which an actor actually tries to portray a character realistically, instead of playing a pompous orator with a couple of nervous ticks meant to represent the character--but I'm here and now starting a movement to stop revering Lawrence Olivier and his hammy kin. Join me?
