After decades in the business, Claire Bloom is the kind of actress with credits spread across cinema, television and everything between. She also turns up in 'Daylight'. The career opened quietly, the way most long ones do. Whatever else appears, drama runs right through the filmography. Steady employment, rather than one breakout, gives the career its shape. 'The King's Speech' is where the largest audience met her. She won the BAFTA for 'Limelight'.
