Dutch Actor Jeroen Krabbé.
Dutch actor Jeroen Krabbé. A major star in his native Netherlands, he has also established himself in international cinema. His film credits include "Turtle Diary," "No Mercy," "A World Apart," "Crossing Delancey" and "Scandal." His best-known role was a Russian spy in the James Bond film "The Living Daylights." Krabbé says it was his role as an sensuous emigre writer in "Crossing Delancey" that helped break Hollywood's view of him as suitable only for East Bloc generals. However, in "Scandal," he plays the role of the Russian diplomat whose involvement with a flirtatious young British woman helped bring down Britain's conservative government. (Rebroadcast. Originally broadcast on Thursday, May 25, 1989.)
