@lostfocus I watched that video too. It's fascinating. i didn't even see Die Hard until last Christmas and now I want to watch it every Christmas. Mainly for Alan Rickman, RIP. 😔
@jean I remember reading an interview where Alan Rickman said that, in approaching the role, he decided to act as if he was the star of the movie. Certainly he made it a two-stars movie rather than a star-plus-bad-guy movie.
@JMaxB That makes a lot of sense. He certainly was a standout in Harry Potter. He won my heart in Truly Madly Deeply. And of course I still laugh when I think about him in GalaxyQuest.
