MINI BIO:
Black-haired Scottish actor who began his career in gentle roles, largely in comedy, but developed in the mid-1960s into an abrasive character star, fiercely portraying a series of single-minded and even psychotic men. He continued to impress when asked to express sourness and criticism. An Oscar nominee for The Flight of the Phoenix, he was killed in a car crash.
