Book review - "The Smallest Giant: An Actor's Life" (2005) by Michael Craig

 Gloriously entertaining look at Craig's acting adventures - his relatively quick rise to success, being at Rank in the 1950s, Europe and Hollywood in the 1960s, Australia in the 1970s. He was a good looking lad who could act - Rank had him as a back up Dirk Bogarde. He whinges a lot. This is very bitchy for someone who had so much success (i.e. consistent work). But it is very funny. It shines a light too on films that don't get a lot of attention, i.e. 1950s British movies.
