I forgot to mention those two! I rewatched Dr Zhivago a year ago, and LOA only a few months ago. Two of my favorites. As a 9 year old kid I had to sit through DZ in the back of a station wagon in the pouring rain at a drive in. Excruciating.
But Julie Christie would have made it worthwhile for me! Strelnikof / Pasha was played by Tom Courtney and he and Christie had starred in a very good film called ‘Billy Liar’ in 1963. It’s a film set in northern England and was pretty revolutionary in it day.. kitchen sink realism and quite contemporary in contrast to the usual London centric standard English pronunciation films of the day.

Rewatching Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid still does it for me! No apologies.
