Terence Stamp is still amazing, and was one of the best things in the surprisingly effective "Valkyrie" picture directed by Bryan Singer, which had disaster written all over it mostly because of Tom Cruise playing w/an American accent against British heavyweights like Stamp, the always excellent Tom Wilkinson and Bill Nighy. You know who Stamp reminds me of? Especially w/regard to their once handsome looks when they were leading men -- yet who are still working today? Albert Finney. When you see Stamp and Finney in the 1960s and see them still in pictures today, it's gratifying. And Ridley -- yes I agree, he does indeed have another masterpiece or two still left in him. But he's older than I thought he was so of course, I hope it happens again soon. He's very prolific, though, so I'm not too worried. -d.

Wyler also did a great job with the creepy THE COLLECTOR. Terrence Stamp was scary in it. Ridley Scott still has another masterpiece in him and I can't wait to see it.
