The son of a Salford bookmaker, Albert Finney and his friend Tom Courtenay led a generation of Northern actors who reinvigorated British theatre in the 1950s and 60s. Informed by interviews with colleagues and friends, this biography follows his career from Saturday Night and Sunday Morning (1960) to Skyfall (2012) and his three marriages to create a sympathetic portrait of a man who rejected lucrative contracts in favour of character roles.
