JOHN MILLS by Robert Tanitch

Sir John Mills has appeared in more than 80 films and over 40 theatrical productions. The quintessential Englishman, equally adept at middle and working-class roles in tragedy and comedy, he is famous for his understated acting in British war films such as "In Which We Serve" and "The Way to the Stars". Published to mark Mills' 85th birthday, this book offers an illustrated survey of his career on screen, stage and television from 1929 to the present day. The reader is carried from the early successes in musicals and revues, classic and modern plays in the Thirties, "Great Expectations" and "Scott of the Antarctic" in the Forties, "Hobson's Choice" and "Ice Cold in Alex" in the Fifties, "Tunes of Glory" and "The Family Way" in the Sixties, "Ryan's Daughter" in the Seventies - and on to the Eighties and Nineties and his continuing successes at the National Theatre and on television. Quotes from critics of the day are included. Robert Tanitch is the author of "A Pictorial Companion to Shakespeare's Plays", and other theatrical biographies which include "Gielgud" and "Guinness".
