RIP Albert Finney

Albert Finney, five times Oscar nominated actor (and IMO should have won it a couple of times at least) has shuffled off his mortal coil for the stage in the sky, aged 82, after a short illness.

RIP.

Fantastic actor, such a shame.
The Tommy Gun scene in Millers crossing with ‘Danny boy’ playing in the background is one of the finest scenes in cinema history.
Loved him as the rogue of a lawyer in Erin Brockovich also.
RIP

Ahh yeah he was the boss man in 'Millers Crossing' wasn't he? Great film, haven't seen that in an age, going to stick that on some stage over the weekend now.

R.I.P.

The run of the country was his best work I feel.

Brilliant actor. So versatile. Not a fan of that take on A Christmas Carol I must say, or the silliness of his Poirot, but so many gems as mentioned.

Awesome in the Bournes too, and a great film from the early 80s called Shoot The Moon.

Always thought was great to see him in the Bourne films...good shows, good performance.
