Screenplay:
Lawrence B. Marcus (based on ‘The Alexandria Quartet’
by Lawrence Durrell)
Role:
Pursewarden
Justine (1969) Although the script retained DurrellÁs ËfeelÓ, the film did not find favour with the public. As Pursewarden, a jaded British consular official assigned to Alexandria, Dirk convincingly conveys the ennui that masks the inner pain of being trapped in a disillusioning career and a hopeless, incestuous love.
