A CLOCKWORK ORANGE & Stage Star Aubrey Morris Dies at 89

BBC News reports that British actor Aubrey Morris, perhaps best known for his role in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange, passed away on Wednesday, July 15th at the age of 89. His agent confirmed the news to the site.

Morris was featured in over fifty films, including Woody Allen's Love and Death (1975),[2] Ken Russell's Lisztomania (1975), and Gene Wilder's The Adventure of Sherlock Holmes' Smarter Brother (1977).[2] He also appeared in many television programmes, his debut being in a BBC production of THE COMEDY Fly Away Peter (1948). Although most of his television appearances were in Britain, such as Z Cars and Lovejoy, he also made some appearances in U.S. programmes, such as a Columbo movie titled Ashes to Ashes (1998).

He spent two years at the Old Vic, from 1954 to 1956, and had theatre roles on Broadway including Brendan Behan's drama THE HOSTAGE in 1960.
