Help me identify a John Gielgud short film

[Orrex]

I've only seen parts of it, on two separate occasions at least one year apart, and I haven't seen it for at least seven or eight years.

It was a brief piece, perhaps fifteen or twenty minutes, and it featured Gielgud and another aged actor on a stage in an empty theater. IIRC they were discussing the various roles they had played in their long careers, with each of them picking up props or bits of costume and breaking into segments from performances decades before.

I recall it to be a terrific little film, but I can't remember who the other actor was, and I don't have any idea of what it was called. I don't even know when it might have been filmed, because Gielgud had that ageless multi-centenarian thing going on for my whole lifetime.


Any guesses?

2. Holy moley that's it!

Thanks a zillion--I was wracking my brain.

I hadn't yet gone through the brute-force effort of clicking through his IMDB filmography, but it was going to come to that sooner or later. Thanks for sparing me the trouble!


on edit: I also had no idea that it was Branagh.
