Coming Attractions

In this sequel to his autobiography "Stamp Album", the young Terence begins his acting career in the late 1950s. With the dedicated coaching of his new thespian friends and his Yugoslav trainer, Dragon, Stamp won a scholarship to the Webber Douglas Academy. He won his first professional role in "The Long and the Short and the Tall" where he met Michael Caine. They were soon sharing a mews flat and also the same suit for auditions which did not fit either of them. Then Stamp's big break came when Peter Ustinov cast him in the title role of his film "Billy Budd".
