David Hemmings Facts
An exhibited painter by the age of 15.

Told movie critic Roger Ebert in a February 1967 interview that he was going to appear in a movie adaption of Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange (1971), with a script by Terry Southern, in 1968. Hemmings did not mention Stanley Kubrick to Ebert. Southern gave Kubrick a copy of "A Clockwork Orange" but the director ignored it as he was working on developing a biography of Napoléon Bonaparte after finishing 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). Reportedly, one of the actors Kubrick considered to play the French soldier and emperor was Hemmings.

He had just finished filming scenes for the movie, Blessed (2004) (aka Samantha's Child), when he suffered a heart attack and died.
