Brilliant actor and one of the two finest voices in film (Christopher Lee being the other). I preferred him in the villainous but still slightly loveable roles most. Severus Snape, The Sheriff of Nottingham, Hans Gruber etc. A wonderful talent of completely hamming it up and sending himself up at the same time! |

Was so gutted to hear this news!
I really liked him and especially in HP. No one else could've been Snape, he was perfect.

I've just been shown this.
It was written by Emma Thompson
I'm sure a lot of you will have already seen it but for those who haven't, take a moment and read it.
Alan was my friend and so this is hard to write because I have just kissed him goodbye.
What I remember most in this moment of painful leave-taking is his humour, intelligence, wisdom, and kindness. His capacity to fell you with a look or lift you with a word.
That intransigence which made him the great artist that he was — his inedible and cynical wit, the clarity with which he saw most things, including me, and the fact that he never spared me the view. I learned a lot from him.
He was the finest of actors and directors. I couldn’t wait to see what he was going to do with his face next. I consider myself hugely privileged to have worked with him so many times and to have been directed by him.
He was the ultimate ally. In like, art and politics. I trusted him absolutely.
He was, above all things, a rare and unique human being and we shall not see his like again.
