Personal Quote:
[on Petulia (1968)] I had a contract which I said I had final cut, total artistic control. Once we signed that, I don't think anyone really believed it. I think Warner Brothers [was] rather surprised with what they'd done. They said something like, "Yes, I know we signed it, but we didn't actually mean it." Too late. See more »Trivia:
After the death of Roy Kinnear on the shooting of The Return of the Musketeers (1989), Lester decided to quit directing. See more »Trademark:
