Katedotness1963 January Man was the first thriller I watched as a kid and I loved Alan Rickman - as others have said he totally stole the show (especially at the end with the woman they were trying to save).

I agree normally I don't care really for people I don't know, MJ, Bowie, Lemmy, for example, but being interested a lot in Harry Potter I did have a little think, not as crazy and emotional as some people over random celebrity deaths but I did stop in my tracks for a while

Went with DD to see 'Sense and Sensibility' when it was first released. Audience was about 90% female; cinema packed. When he walked through the door and just stopped and looked at Marianne, a very audible 'Phwoar' went up -- just for a look...! Shock
What an actor - what a wonderful human being.... Sad

Thanks CaveMum, I adored that video at the time and had forgotten completely about it. Bittersweet to watch it again.

I walked into office at lunchtime and it was on the TV. I said OMG to the security guy (in shock) and explained!! that I had a real thing about him. Had no idea he was 69. Had assumed he was more like 57.

I saw him on the stage twice. Amazing.

That voice. RIP. 😢

I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever

Me too - sad. Loved him in so many things. Truly, Madly Deeply, Sense and Sensibility, as Snape, - such a good actor and as others have said, so very sexy. RIP.

He acted Kevin Costner him off the screen in that Robin Hood movie I thought. I remember reading somewhere that Costner felt a bit aggrieved about it too.

Alan Rickman was a fine actor and always humorous, charming, dangerous, intense and veeery sexy!!! I miss him already.

Daniel Radcliffe posted a lovely tribute plus a funny photo from the Harry Potter set.
