The only thing I liked about Alien.

Rewatched Big Night and had forgotten his entire role. It's a backhanded compliment, but he sinks so seamlessly into the milieu, everyone else is more "attention getting." This is his usual m.o.

He's way more icy and elusive than 'droll' to me in his best roles.

When I watched Chariots of Fire for the first time about 15 years ago, I didn't think he was anything special. That came in Dreamchild, which Pauline Kael was pretty high on.

I dunno: "droll" in my definition folds in "elusive" and "icy."
