My Take

Susannah York was one of the great English screen presences of the 1960s, and I never tire of her work from that period. Tom Jones is all mischief and charm, but it is They Shoot Horses, Don't They? that floors me, her unraveling in that dance marathon is heartbreaking and earned her an Oscar nomination. She had this luminous, slightly unguarded quality on camera that made her impossible to look away from. She kept working on stage and as a writer right up to her death in 2011, and the Chelsea-born actress remains, for me, a defining face of British cinema's golden run.

Overview

Susannah Yolande Fletcher (9 January 1939 – 15 January 2011), known professionally as Susannah York, was an English actress. Her appearances in various films of the 1960s, including Tom Jones (1963) and They Shoot Horses, Don't They? (1969), formed the basis of her international reputation.
