Round 3: Tossup 11

Sidney J. Furie, the director of a 1965 film starring this actor, told the cast “this is what I think of the script” before setting a copy of it on fire. Roy Budd used tabla throughout his score to a film in which this actor tells a man, “You’re in bad shape. With me it’s a full time job. Now behave yourself” after slapping him. This actor’s character avenges his brother’s death upon a villain played by John Osborne in that debut film by Mike Hodges. This actor played a rake who deals with a TB diagnosis in a film whose theme, written by Hal (*) David and Burt Bacharach, was covered by Dionne Warwick. At the end of a 1969 film, this actor says “I’ve got a great idea. Uh …” while lying next to a pile of gold in a bus teetering on a cliff. Peter Sellers parodied this star of The Ipcress File, Alfie, and Get Carter (10[1])with the line “not many people know that.” For 10 points, the line “you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!” from The Italian Job (10[1])exemplifies what actor’s Cockney accent? ■END■
