Nice tribute, Simon. I'm happy to link this my own tribute to DS. He also steals the show in a wonderful film called "Little Murders". On a personal note, his face at the end of Invasion of the Body Snatchers chilled me to the bone, I think partly because I was so invested in his character. A seminal moment in my love of cinema.
I hate to say this Simon- so close to your short story- but the memory fixed in my head is Donald Sutherland’s character killing a cat in the film 1900. (1976)
Can’t say he was a favourite as I always found him to be a disturbing presence - which I’m sure was what he and his directors were after. Loved him in the Cloudbusting video however. Thanks for including it.

Oh yeah saw Little Murderz only recently from your shop! Wonderful.
An outstanding actor with a lifetime of excellent roles. Watched him most recently in The Burnt Orange Heresy which I loved
