Ben Cross, the actor best known to one generation for playing a determined runner in the 1981 Academy Award-winning film “Chariots of Fire” and to another audience decades later for his role in a reboot of “Star Trek,” died on Tuesday at a hospital in Vienna. He was 72.

 

Damn good movie, imo. One of the few movies that treated religion with respect.

Saw this.  That's too young.  Really enjoyed that flick as a kid and he's had a quietly successful career since.

His first role was in A Bridge Too Far.  Briefly seen in this memorable scene, in the background at about 2:10 and 3:10
