James Fox
Happy and relaxed dialogue with the then 28-year-old actor, covering his rise to fame and plans for the future.
Overview
After his role in The Servant (1963), James Fox was in demand. This interview, filmed four years later, has the young star in affable mood, freely admitting his lack of planning, love of California and thoughts about his craft. It predates his role in Performance (1970), after which he suffered a nervous breakdown and withdrew from acting for eight years.
