Facts
Born into a theatrical family in London, Edward Fox followed
in the footsteps of his younger brother
James who
was a child performer. He made his first screen
appearance in the sci-fi flick The Mind Benders
(1963). Routine roles followed throughout the 1960s before Fox
scored as Julie Christie's
fiance in Joseph Losey's The Go-Between (1973).
Fox won critical praise and is
perhaps best known for his performance
as the menacing assassin in Fred Zinnemann's
The Day of the Jackal (1973).
Throughout the 70s and 80s, he worked in small
or supporting roles, generally in period
pieces: A Bridge Too Far and The Duellists
(both 1977); Soldier of Orange (1979);
Gandhi (1982); The Shooting Party (1984).
Fox has made sporadic appearances on the small screen, notably
as the Duke of Windsor in
Edward and Mrs. Simpson (1978) and
recreating his London stage role as
the title character in Quartermaine's Terms
(1987).
In a return to leading roles, he won critical praise
opposite
Vanessa Redgrave
and Uma Thurman
as one side of a romantic triangle
in the period drama A Month by the Lake (1995).
