If anyone knows where I can get a copy, in any format, of this film, I'd be eternally grateful. My first experience of Noel Coward -- which changed my life!! lankinboys@rogers.com
I've seen many other productions of the play over the years, including a wonderful one at the Stratford Festival here in Ontario with Brian Bedford as Gary, but none have come close to O'Toole's wry, cynical, but warm-hearted characterization. And the supporting cast is brilliant as well -- Honor Blackman smolders as Liz, Tim Preece is crazed and touching as Roland Maule, and everyone else shows just why English rep companies are the world's leading training grounds for actors. Brilliant
