Really sad to lose John Hurt. He was an amazing actor and has 22 archiveable films (which is astounding) over a 50 year period. 22 archiveable films, 2 nominations for midnight express and the elephant man…. 8-9 best films that were top 10 top 10 of their year. He’s worked with Von Trier and Jarmusch among other great auteurs. I think 3 masterpieces: Alien, Dead Man and Melancholia.
