I'll stick to his work as an actor. Here we go:
1. The Flesh is Weak - Derek effectively cast against type as a pimp in a decent British thriller
2. The Adventures of Haji Baba - fun Eastern with bright colour and action
3. The Outcast - tough William Whitney Western with Derek as a more rugged hero than usual, full of action
4. The Last Posse - surprisingly downbeat, gripping Western with Derek and Brod Crawford
5. Saturday's Hero - Derek quite effective as a champion colleage athlete in a film that takes risks and is consistently interesting
6. The Ten Commandments - big glossy blockbuster but smart, Derek as Joshua
7. All the King's Men - Derek is effective in a small role as Crawford's weak son
8. Knock on any Door - decent film though a better actor than Derek (like say Tony Curtis) would've made this sing
9 Once Before I Die - Derek starred and directed with Ursula Andress, an interesting movie
10. Prince of Pirates - another fun swashbuckler
