Good list. I think my favorite of your list is The Browning Version. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it.

The Browning Version is an excellent film and Redgrave gives one of my all-time favourite performances in it. Such a rich, wise, devastating performance.

Albert Finney is excellent in the later filming of this play but Redgrave is simply masterful.
