Personal Quote:

Good God, some of the new young actors say they don't know whether they wanted to be actors or not! I cannot understand this. To me, it is like saying you can't make up your mind whether or not you love a certain woman. If you don't then take a walk. In acting, as in love, there is no place for indifference. See more »

Trivia:

He was a close friend of Sir David Lean, who regretted that Howard was not young enough to play James Fox's role in A Passage to India. See more »
