Name a better actor than Lawrence Olivier. I'll wait.

Wuthering Heights (1939), Rebecca (1940), and a trilogy of Shakespeare films as actor/director: Henry V (1944), Hamlet (1948), and Richard III (1955). Spartacus (1960),  Othello (1965), The Shoes of the Fisherman (1968), Merchant of Venice (1970), Sleuth (1972), Marathon Man (1976), and The Boys from Brazil (1978). His television appearances included an adaptation of The Moon and Sixpence (1960), Long Day's Journey into Night (1973), Love Among the Ruins (1975), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1976), Brideshead Revisited (1981) and King Lear (1983).

This isn't even a quarter of his output in film, radio, and stage.

Entire NYPD should go on strike. You'll see then how quickly the mayor changes his tone.

Great actor, but the true brilliance of Lawrence Olivier is known only to those that saw him in the theater.
