Lynch made his first film, "On the Fiddle", in 1961, after which he worked in medium-priced films until the all-star epic "55 Days at Peking" (1965). In "The Hill" (1965), a POW drama, Lynch was but one of many actors (including "Sean Connery") speaking in British vernacular so thick that one virtually needed subtitles to figure out what was going on! A more coherent "Alfred Lynch" could be seen in the "Taylor"-"Burton" "The Taming of the Shrew" (1967) and "Sidney Lumet"'s 1968 filmization of Chekhov's "The Seagull" (1968). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
