Good actor with quite the range. I've enjoyed many of his movies and characters. I've no clue what makes for an excellent actor but I was always convinced of who he was in his roles.
Just brilliant. Canadian, from Quebec. Oops, born in St. John. But if memory serves me, he lived for a number of years on the PQ side of that border.....Reading further: No, I'm just wrong. The family moved to NS.
What a film resume he had. Saw Eye of the Needle recently: a great WW II suspense film with DS as a nasty German spy. He played it to the max, like he apparently did every role.
"Kelly's Heroes:" Ah, what a fully insane movie. His character, in this movie, was endearing to the maximum !!! And to the wonderful father figure in 'Pride and Prejudice'.
And he was already older, playing Nicole Kidman's Minister-father in "Cold Mountain." So difficult to watch. Southern society unraveling during the Civil War. People will do ANYTHING. The ones playing the local law enforcement guys were convincing: they made us hate them. In the film, it was a father-son duo.
