BURTON'S VILLAINOUS VIC DAKIN





TP pictured opposite Richard Burton in the 1971 film, ‘Villain’. Burton plays Vic Dakin, an East End gang leader in the mould of Ronnie Kray, who has approached TP’s character ‘Frank Fletcher’, a rival gang boss, to join forces in undertaking a major payroll heist.

This was TP’s second film with Burton having appeared as a courtier in the lavish costume drama, Anne the Thousand Days, for which Burton received an Oscar nomination.
