LOL! I'm laughing with you Miss Marmelstein and agree with you that Stanley Baker was an outstanding actor! It says a lot that despite his political views, he was still awarded Knighthood. How sad that he was unable to officially receive the honor due to his illness, hospitalization and early death.
I’ll never forget someone here going off at me - maybe two years ago! A complete loon.
The odd thing about British socialists (unlike American scum) is that they are often quite fond of their country and the Empire - as Mr. Baker clearly was if “Zulu” is anything to go by. He had wonderful screen presence and I wish he had made many more movies.
The last thing I saw him in was a remake of “How Green Was My Valley.” He was clearly very ill but wonderful nonetheless.
Glad to know there are Stanley Baker fans out of the closet on FR!
