Edward Chapman as Jess Oakroyd in The Good Companions

It is a shock to meet Edward Chapman in the flesh after having seen him as Jess Oakroyd. Mr. chapman is so neat, so sleek and so intelligent-looking. Oakroyd is so casual, so shaggy and so innocent with all his shrewdness. These two pictures prove how completely a good character-actor can sink his personality in his part, and how valuable to hi is the observation of small details such as the set of a cap and the pattern of a collar or tie. .
