Principal Characters, Neame fills in the gaps of his illustrious career by providing brief intimate portraits of the many important film figures he has worked with. In this charming collection of anecdotes, he asks and answers questions about the stars, who reveal both their carefree and vulnerable moments alike: Was Richard Harris really such a hell-raiser as a young man?
What was Peter Sellers like to work with?
How did Robert Mitchum find himself in trouble?
How many faces did Alec Guinness have?
What was behind Peter O’Toole and a bomb threat in Paris?
Looking behind the camera lens, Neame captures director Karel Reisz (
This Sporting Life) wearing a producer’s hat, marvels at cinematographer Geoffrey Unsworth ‘painting’ Cabaret with light, discloses Kenneth Tynan’s unusual predilection, and weighs in on the culinary skills of Ismail Merchant (A Room with a View).Throughout these accounts, Christopher looks both acutely and often amusingly at many who are household names, and when he feels it is appropriate to do so, he doesn’t pull punches. This work is a fitting conclusion to an autobiographical “trilogy,” and will be of interest to all those curious about the film industry and especially the stars and directors Christopher Neame has worked with over the years.
