The following capsule biography and list of performances are copied
from Cinemania, Microsoft CD-ROM movie data base. I thought they might
be of interest to people like me who are saddened at Elliott's recent
death.


Denholm Elliott (1922 -    )



Occupation:     Actor
Born:   May 31, 1922, London
Education:      Malvern CollegeRADA, London 

Consummate character player who began his screen career 
playing earnest, dependable young men, as in The Cruel Sea 
(1953). By the time of Nothing But the Best (1964), Elliott 
had perfected the seedy, rumpled and usually boozy persona 
which he used to portray a succession of conmen, journalists, 
and assorted shabby types. He has won two British Film 
Awards, for his roles in A Private Function (1985) and 
Defence of the Realm (1985), and was nominated for an Oscar 
for his performance as the professor father of Julian Sands 
in A Room With a View (1985). Married to first wife, 
actress Virginia McKenna, from 1954 to 1956.
