I big fan too ( he was born in my neck of the woods) He was a wonderful actor. I think his work is vastly underated as he died at a relatively young age. Goodbye Mr Chips (with a very young Sir John Mills) and The Magic Box are great films.

I'm a hugh fan of old British films in general really, but they do tend to suffer form the 'ever so' clipped English accents, which does tend to date them terribly, which is a shame, whereas the American films from the 30's, 40's and 50's seem to have aged better.
