Essential John Gielgud Films

In contrast to other esteemed British actors, John Gielgud approached the cinema lightly for decades, with long years between movie appearances. Yet his filmography from the 1920s through the '70s contains such notable works as Hitchcock's The Secret Agent and Mankiewicz's Julius Caesar. Gielgud picked up the pace in the late '60s and seems not to have turned any role down, often dropping in for a few minutes (Gandhi), though frequently getting brilliant character parts (Brideshead Revisited). He was magnificent, however, in the lead of Providence. Dry, cool, Gielgud can make art from flippancy (Arthur), chilly authority (Plenty), or compassionate eccentricity (Shine).
