Armchair Theatre: The Gong Game (ABC, 1965)

"We're never afraid to aquire the one thing that really counts, are we."

"Oh, money, you mean?"

"No, no, no. No, money isn't important. Some of the finest men I've ever met were, um... were quite poor."

"What is important then?"

"Character."

"You didn't come all this way to talk about that, did you?"

I was very very wrong. This is not at all #What I was expecting but it is something much much better. A desperately sad story of a public school type and war hero fallen on hard #Times and able only to watch as his life begins to fall to pieces around him; all the sadder for the facade of cheerfulness and good spirit #He maintains almost unbroken throughout. Written specially for Phillips its a one man tour de force and quite simply the best #Performance I've ever seen from him; he plays on his familiar image of the upper class charmer (already well established by 65) but allows #Just enough to show through the cracks to hint at a howling vortex of fear and pain beneath. Some beautifully handled scenes; a heart #Breaking meeting between Phillips and his unthinking daughter who cheerfully tells him she is dropping his surname is shot so that Phillips #Face is not seen during the moments of reaction and only slightly after when he has forced back the cheerful smile: in fact his face is not #Seen properly again from this point until one shocking reveal at a bar hours later when the mask finally (but only briefly) slips and we se #A wounded and raging man desperately trying to make sense of his world. An incredible performance and a deeply affecting play
