Synopsis: |
Dickie, (sorry, Lord), Attenborough has come a long way since his days as a youthful actor in "Brighton Rock". His present reputation is founded solidly on his directorial abilities, with films such as "Gandhi", "Cry Freedom" and now this well crafted biography, which features a show-stopping performance by Robert Downey Jnr. as the eponymous silent film hero with the slightly dubious private life. | Average score 8 |
