James Fox is a British actor best known for his role as Chas, a violent London gangster who undergoes an identity dissolution in Nicolas Roeg and Donald Cammell's 'Performance' (1970).
Fox's performance as Chas — a man of violence whose identity is penetrated and transformed by a reclusive rock star — is one of the defining pieces of British acting in the 1970s and a key inspiration for Nolan's interest in identity dissolution.
