Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted June 19, 2020 Awards Moderator Share Posted June 19, 2020 (edited) Very sad news about Ian Holm - he was great in many things, but it’s Bilbo in Lord of the Rings that I’ll always associate him with. Perfect performance. RIP.  Edited June 19, 2020 by HarmonicGenerator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra_gordo Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Shit, that one stings. Bilbo and Ash in Alien are obviously two roles he's going to be really remembered for but he's fantastic as Cornelius in The Fifth Element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted June 19, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2020 So many great performances in a truly great career that I hope he was proud of and happy with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members chokeout Posted June 19, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted June 19, 2020 A fantastic, classically trained actor that could try anything. He'll always be Pod from the Borrowers though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Blog Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Lord of The Rings is perhaps my favourite ever bit of literature and I adore the films. Ian Holm was a fantastic actor, saddened by this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanky316 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 A perfect organism. I always admired his roles and brought so much character to anything he was in. Such a great list of roles, including some I'd forgotten about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pogue Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Always used to say Sam Lowry in his voice at school, sadly no one else had seen Brazil so I just looked like a knob Great actor, remember seeing him in one of Dennis Potter's teleplays and he was phenomenal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Frankie Crisp Posted June 19, 2020 Awards Moderator Share Posted June 19, 2020 Not to derail the thread, but if you like Dennis Potter, Lipstick on Your Collar is on All4. Watched it the other week and it was a great as it was melancholic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
