Better Late Than Never is a 1983 film directed by Bryan Forbes. It stars David Niven, Art Carney and Maggie Smith. The soundtrack features songs by Henry Mancini and Nol Coward.
Forbes originally offered Carneys role to William Holden who declined because the fee offered was too small. Forbes wrote in 1992 that if Holden had made the film he might have been alive today.
