Well, O.K., but I suppose it is time to clear out the also rans, and merely say two words: Julie Christie. Anyone ever see Billy Liar, her first film, with Tom Courtenay? At the end of the film he has to decide if he is going to go off with Julie Christie to London, or go back home. He goes back home. I have never really been able to take British males seriously ever since.
