    They seriously underrated Kingsley when they only knighted him. He is a remarkable actor, AND human being. But what really riveted me about this remarkable interview, is when Kingsley described how he arrived at the psychopathic killer mindset in "Sexy Beast," when he said, "he was an abused child." That single sentence put cold chills down my spine. It's why I always tell parents, "Be good to your children."

Result - the production was scrapped! He demands reference to his being a knight in any production even though it is not etiquette within the acting profession to do so. Not the most popular actor although he is very good.
