Richard Attenborough, who after a distinguished stage and film acting career in Britain reinvented himself to become the internationally admired director of the monumental "Gandhi" and other films, died on Sunday. He was 90.

His death was confirmed by his son, Michael, according to the BBC.

Until the early 1960s, Mr. Attenborough was a familiar actor in Britain but little known in the United States. In London he was the original detective in Agatha Christie's play "The Mousetra". On the British screen, he made an early mark as the sociopath Pinkie Brown in an adaptation of Graham Greene's "Brighton Rock" (1947).

"Gandhi" (1982), an epic but intimate biographical film, was his greatest triumph.
