I'm a huge James Mason fan, absolutely one of my all time favourite actors and he was born, in Huddersfield, 100 years ago today. For me, there's no other actor who embodies such noble dignity and pathos.Here's a lovely tribute from David Thomson in today's Guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2009/may/15/james-mason
There are so performances of his I love, in films like; 'Odd Man Out', 'A Star is Born', 'North By North West' , 'Cross of Iron' and 'Murder by Decree'. But tonight we've decided our tribute screening will be his beautiful, heart rending role as Nabokov's Humbert Humbert in 'Lolita'
