Well done, correct answer is Cary Grant, born in Bristol, England, who, after retiring from acting, became a director with Faberge. He was one of Hitchcock`s favorite actors.
Next question.
I need the name of the movie, and the actor.
Filmed in San Francisco the car chase is reckoned to be one of the best ever. Who was the leading actor (and the movie)?

Hmm, some may say Daniel Craig was a little out of place, though his reviews in the main seemed positive.
Not him though.
Next clue.
This actor isn`t British.
realist

Surprisingly no one got this.
The answer is George Lazenby (Australian) whose ONLY Bond role was in On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969). His reviews weren`t all that great.
That`s the contest finished, so all winners should PM me with your LR Nos, or post in here, if you haven`t already done so.
