Sail on Pete Postlethwaite

Post by VanillaGrl »

Oscar-nominated British actor Pete Postlethwaite has died in hospital in Shropshire at the age of 64, a spokesman announces.

In response to the praise that he was the best actor in the world, Postlethwaite joked: “I’m sure what
Spielberg actually said was, ‘the thing about Pete is that he thinks he’s the best actor in the world’.”
Postlethwaite played Giuseppe Conlon in the film "In the Name of the Father"

Met him in 2001 when he was in Halifax, filming parts of The Shipping News, which won Golden Globe and SAG awards for Kevin Spacey and Judi Dench respectively. Lovely man.

Sail on, Pete . . .
