4.0

This book is so compelling because Simon Callow is an actor. Since this was written in 1987 and Lancaster died in 1986, it would been good if Callow did more interviews and research using archives instead of using books by Lancaster and Charles Higham. Although Higham's "Charles Laughton: An Intimate Biography" (1976) was not listed in the selected bibliography.
