Ok, I’m prejudiced but Peter O’Toole in a little known movie called Venus is my pick. I say prejudiced because i knew him. I was his standby on Broadway in a play called Pygmalion. That is the play that My Fair Lady was based on. tThere maybe some of you who don’t know who he was. If i said Lawrence of Arabia would that help? I got to know him during the run of Pygmalion and went on for him a lot. He was absolutely brilliant. Anyway, his death scene in Venus is so simple and honest its breathtaking.
There are many great stories about his drinking escapades. He, Burton and Harris were notorious for their antics. one of a kind.
