Finney’s career both on film and on the stage come together in “The Dresser,” the film version of Ronald Harwood’s Tony-nominated play about life in the theatre. Finney portrays “Sir,” an old-school Shakespearean actor whose mental capacities are rapidly declining and who is kept on track only by his personal dresser Norman (Tom Courtenay) who has devoted the past few decades serving The Great Man. Behind the bombast of “Sir,” Finney masterfully reveals the actor’s insecurities, and for that performance, Finney earned his third Oscar nomination, his fifth Golden Globe nod and a BAFTA nomination.
