Ian Holm
The classically trained Shakespearean actor, Ian Holm, spent a lot of his career on screen playing supporting characters such as the sinister android Ash in Alien or the adventurous Bilbo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films. However, it would be on the stage where he would make the most impact. He would win a Tony Award in 1967 for his performance as Lenny in The Homecoming and a Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor for his lead role in 1998’s King Lear. Sadly he would lose his battle with Parkinson’s disease on June 19 2020.

Fascinating. Really enjoyed this
It’s a shame the younger generations know nothing about these actors nor any of the best actors of the ’40s and ’50s.
I remember most, well. Especially Honor Blackman / “Pussy Galore”.
Olivia and Errol made 9 movies together. They are some of the most entertaining films ever produced. Their chemistry together was so natural and engaging. I suspect Olivia has a life time crush on Errol, too bad he had a life time crush on every screen lady !
“The Adventures of Robin Hood” is magnificent and she was a perfect Maid Marian!
Like this. Hope you keep it coming.
I remember them all.
Hard to believe that their gone.
Everyone a great actor.
Don’t forget Bond,James Bond.
Olivia DeHavilland and Kirk Douglas, two super stars who were stars when the name “star” meant something.
I remember most, it gives may approximate away almost, hint: I am a senior but god have a grandchild to some, I cant imagine living past 100, however I hope I am blessed to do so, the road ahead is shorter, LOL
