1 GUINNESS, ALEC Blessings in disguise.
New York Alfred A. Knopf, 1986 0394552377 / 9780394552378 Hard Cover Very Good in Very Good dust jacket 
238 pages, 8 plates, cloth, dj, very good. From the dj: The long-awaited autobiography of one of the greatest actors of our day - a memoir that in its scrupulous intelligence and accuracy of observation, its modesty mingled with wild and dancing humor, and its sweet idiosyncrasy, is pure Guinness. Includes portraits of Ralph Richardson, John Gielgud, Edith Evans, Sybil Thorndike, Lewis Casson, Tyrone Guthrie, Evelyn Waugh, Bernard Shaw, Vivien Leigh. From the Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition: Sir Alec Guinness, 1914-2000, English actor, b. London. After his stage debut in 1934, Guinness performed with John Gielgud's company and at the Old Vic. He was an actor of enormous versatility and range on stage and in film. One of his earliest and most acclaimed stage performances was his modern-dress Hamlet (1938). Guinness's gifts for mimicry and characterization delighted audiences in such film comedies as Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949) in which he performed 10 roles; The Lavender Hill Mob (1951); The Ladykillers (1955); and The Horse's Mouth (1958). Among the many dramatic films in which he appeared are The Prisoner (1955); The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957), for which he won an Academy Award; Tunes of Glory (1960); and Star Wars (1977). On television he won acclaim for his portrayal of George Smiley, John le Carré's counterintelligence agent, in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (1979) and Smiley's People (1982).
