I'm glad "The Four Feathers" is included in this tribute to Ralph Richardson. Wonderful performance. He never understood "method" actors and the contortions they put themselves through. He explained his approach to playing a role as:
"You get the script. You learn your part of it. And then you put on the whiskers and do it."
