'William Wyler' (qv) was so strike by Boyd's ceremony in that film that he ask Fox to loan him Boyd, resultant in his being body in what be probably his unsurpassed celebrated role, that of Messala in the classic _Ben-Hur (1959)_ (qv) in front of 'Charlton Heston' (qv). He received a Golden Globe admit for his work on that film but was surprisingly bypass on Oscar night. Still below contract with Fox, Boyd wait on all side to play the role of Marc Anthony in _Cleopatra (1963)_ (qv) opposite 'Elizabeth Taylor (I)' (qv). However, Taylor became so critically ill that the relinquish was delayed for months, which cause Boyd and other actor to cancel from the film and cut on to other project. Boyd made several films under contract wakeful to that incident going self-directed. One of the highlights was _Fantastic Voyage (1966)_ (qv), a science-fiction film almost a crew of scientists miniaturized and inject into the human entry as if in inside area. He also received a nomination for his role of Insp. Jongman in _The Inspector (1962)_ (qv) (aka "The Inspector") co-starring with 'Dolores Hart' (qv). Boyd's Hollywood career switch on to fade by the ambivalent 1960s as he started to devote more time in Europe, where on earth he seem to find enhanced roles more suited to his interests. When he went independent it was apparent that he take on roles that spoke to him rather than a flash ago taking on assignments for the burial, and several of the projects he undertake were, at the time, quite arguable, such as _Slaves (1969)_ (qv) and _Carter's Army (1970) (TV)_ (qv). Boyd choose his roles base solely on role advance and the plus of the romance that was tell to the general public, and never based on economic castigation or peer force. Although at the altitude of his career he was considered one of Hollywood's leading man, he never forget where he come from, and always reminded one and all that he was, chiefly, an Irishman. When the money started coming in, one of the first things he did was to ensure that his clan was taken safekeeping of. He was above all lock capable of his mother Martha and his brother Alex. Boyd was married twice over, the first time in 1958 to Italian-born MCA executive Mariella di Sarzana, but that only last (officially) during the film of "Ben Hur". His second nuptials was to Elizabeth Mills, secretary at the British Arts Council and a cohort since 1955. Liz Mills follow Boyd to the US in the late 1950s and was his personal assistant and secretary for years before they married, about ten months before his annihilation on June 2, 1977, in Northridge, California, from a massive heart deride while playing golf - one of his favorite pastime - at the Porter Valley Country Club. He is lower-level at Oakwood Memorial Park in Chatsworth, California. It was a horrific disadvantage, just as he seemed to be making a comeback with his recent roles in the run _"Hawaii Five-O" (1968)_ (qv) and the English hoary eyeshade _The Squeeze (1977)_ (qv). It is a genuine blow to see that a man who was so fervent about his work, who required nought but to report a story with character, a man who was ahead of his time in oodles ways completed up being overlooked by many of his peers. One certainty time out about Stephen Boyd, however--his fan be standing passionate about his work to this day, almost 30 years after his death, and one should guess if he ever realize that probably in some way he achieve the intention he thicken out for himself: to occupy the public and copy limelight to the true art of acting while maintain glamor as he defined it by left behind himself a brainteaser.
