He is the link Marlene Dietrich (one of his earliest jobs was to get her on set) and Timothy Dalton and just about evrybody in between and he is an unsung hero of the UK movie industry.


Famous quotes containing the word anthony:

    Some of us who sit upon this platform have many a time been clamored down, and told that we had no right to speak, and that we were out of our place in public meetings; far be it from us, when women assemble, and a man has a thought in his soul, burning for utterance, to retaliate upon him.
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
