One of the most distinguished British actors of his generation also turns out to be a gentleman and family man, who was devoted to his wife. Dubbed a "hellraiser" by some, the portrait painted here is not a man who drank for effect or to draw attention to himself, nor was in any way rude, but a social man who enjoyed a quiet glass with friends after a hard day of work. Any fans of this great actor will enjoy this examination of his life and films

One of the finest film actors of his generation. Howard began his career in the 1940s and excelled at playing debonair officers and gentlemen, carving a niche in his latter years as England's favorite screen autocrat. His understated performance opposite Celia Johnson in David Lean's "Brief Encounter" (1945) brought him to international attention and led to work with a distinguished roster of directors including Luchino Visconti, Joseph Losey and Tony Richardson. Howard enjoyed his most productive association with Carol Reed, memorably as the police major with an impeccably stiff upper lip in "The Third Man" with Orson Welles & Joseph Cotten (1949) and as the often unsympathetic but realistically complex protagonist of "An Outcast of the Islands" (1951). Trevor appeared in more than eighty films including Sons and Lovers with Dean Stockwell, The Charge of The Light Brigade with Vanessa Redgrave, Von Ryan's Express with Frank Sinatra, The Bawdy Adventures of Tom Jones, Staying On, Gandhi with Ben Kingsley, Mutiny on The Bounty with Marlon Brando
