Topic: Maurice Denham


  
  Film | Maurice Denham
That much-relished character actor Maurice Denham, who has died aged 92, was virtually a one-man chronicle of the decay of the respectable classes.
At the same time, Denham was appearing before a minuscule audience in BBC television productions from Alexandra Palace, a way of dipping his toes into the new medium while he also tried out the possibilities of radio.
Denham made his first film appearance in 1947 with a small part in The Man Within, alongside Richard Attenborough, and then found that his presence was virtually compulsory in every British film, from Madness Of The Heart (1949) to Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines (1965).

Characters were eliminated, certain elements of plot were simplified, and the book's gloomy ending was softened to offer a glimmer of hope, but Orwell's parable of the Russian revolution--retold as a revolt among not-so-equal barnyard animals--remains potently intact.
With British actor Maurice Denham supplying all the voices and Gordon Heath providing newsreel-like narration, this economical, documentary-like telling of Orwell's tale was criticized for its "Disneyfied" style, but the animation is actually quite striking in its European influence and bold use of symbolism.
It has aged, and some of its impact has been lost to the course of history, but it's an essential addition to any serious animation collection.
