The Bridge Over River Kwai is one of my favorites of all time because of his acting in it and I definitely want to see more of his works. I encourage you all to do so as well if you have not. > > > > Fer"I won't end with an obvious Star Wars reference"rick > > Likewise with me; "Lawrence of Arabia" is one of my favorite movies of all time...in my opinion he was better in it than in Star Wars.

His best stuff was the so-called Ealing Comedies, made at Ealing Studios in London. "Kind Hearts and Coronets", "The Ladykillers" and the "Lavender Hill Mob" are all classics of the cinema. See if you can.
