You're right - I believe it was Alec's first foray into movies. His last acting part was in a Dickens adaptation too.
I think through the camera we could appreciate his subtle, internal work - thankfully he made it from stage to screen. It'd be a great loss otherwise.

Hopefully you can find his 'Smiley' spy work on YouTube still (unless they've taken it down).

What was his last role? His comments when he met James Dean are worth looking up.

Definitely gonna check that one out. Hearing from classic movie stars is so enjoyable for me. They seemed so much more laid back than stars today and could tell a story that really hits me.
