Marius Goring brought precise, theatrical intensity to British film and memorably played an otherworldly heavenly messenger and a driven, obsessive ballet composer. A Matter of Life and Death and The Red Shoes are those two, Ill Met by Moonlight kidnaps a German general with Cretan fighters, Odette dramatises a British agent’s capture by the Gestapo, and Rob Roy, the Highland Rogue leads a rebellion for a clan’s lands. So Long at the Fair rounds out the list.
