I went to see The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp, the 1943 film by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, restored by The Film Foundation under Martin Scoresese's leadership. It is a remarkable film in form and substance as recognized by raving reviews but I found especially astounding the transformation in the performance of Roger Livesey (then, 37 years old) from young Clive Candy to the elderly Brigadier General.
