Examples include Reach for the Sky (1956), Carve Her Name with Pride (1958) and Sink the Bismarck! (1960).In 1966 Gilbert directed Alfie starring Michael Caine. Gilbert said the film was only made because the low budget was "the sort of money Paramount executives normally spend on cigar bills".[cite this quote] The film was nominated for five Academy Awards including best picture. Gilbert was nominated for a Golden Globe for best director, and the film was remade in 2004 with Jude Law.
