In the late 1950s Attenborough formed a production company Beaver Films with Bryan Forbes and began to build a profile as a producer on projects including The League of Gentlemen (1959) The Angry Silence (1960) and Whistle Down the Wind (1961) also appearing in the first two of these as an actor. During the 1960s he expanded his range of character roles in films such as Séance on a Wet Afternoon (1964) and Guns at Batasi (1964) for which he won the BAFTA Award for Best Actor for his portrayal of the Regimental Sergeant Major (RSM).
