Your English style will no doubt put all the other gentlemen to bed. I speak figuratively, of course.
"Sir Arthur John Gielgud", Order of Merit/OM, Companion of Honour/CH, was an English actor and theatre director whose career spanned eight decades. With Ralph Richardson and Laurence Olivier, he was one of the trinity of actors who dominated the British stage for much of the 20th century. A member of the Terry family theatrical dynasty, he gained his first paid acting work as a junior member of his cousin Phyllis Neilson-Terry's company in 1922. After studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art he worked in repertory theatre and in the West End theatre/West End before establishing himself at the Old Vic as an exponent of William Shakespeare/Shakespeare in 1929–31.

The big thing is to combine punctuality, efficiency, good nature, obedience, intelligence, and concentration with an unawareness of what is going to happen next, thus keeping yourself available for excitement.
Olivier's was, to my mind, the definitive Macbeth. Olivier had murder in his heart the moment he came on the stage.
Before you can do something you must first be something.
I have been extraordinarily lucky.
