RIP Max von Sydow

Another day ruined
Requiescat in pace Max.



What a legend he was! I looked forward to seeing him in any role. First became aware of him in The Virgin Spring (1960). Other of my favorites of his are The Exorcist, Three Days of the Condor, and Hannah and Her Sisters.

He's one of those actors, like William Holden, who never gave a bad performance. He had a 60 year career, and will be sorely missed.

Rest in Peace. Absolute legend. Pure gravitas, such a commanding presence mixed with an inexplicable amount of inherent warmth.
‘Nuff said. R.I.P.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen any of his most famous works, but I did see him in the Force Awakens and Flash Gordon. He was great in both.

RIP



When I saw The Seventh Seal for the first time, I became a Max Von Sydow fam then and there. I didn't know he'd be in the very next movie I decided to watch: The Exorcist. RIP, Max Von Sydow. I'm watching bith movies again today.
