Actor ____ Guinness (4)

I believe the answer is:

alec

'actor guinness' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for alec that I've seen before include "Smart boy?" , "Boy's name (a smart one?)" , "A smart . . . . is a know-all in lace" , "Actor Guinness is smart" , "Sir - Douglas-Home, former PM" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, the USA Today, The Star Tribune, the King Feature Syndicate, The Telegraph, The Sun, the Universal, the Newsday, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.
