John Hurt was one of the greatest actors that ever lived!
I love John Hurt, end of story.
Bloody interviewer never let John finish speaking!
Sir John was a different man after marrying his fourth wife Anwen so I was instinctively looking for when they met and got married. This was pre-Anwen. That explains the vibe. He was more laid back and sweeter after she entered his life. Before that he was more complicated as a person
His role as Richard Rich in the movie, A Man for All season's was brilliant, however 20 odd years later his 2 sons are bums in a small Irish city ...
And then he found out latter he wasn’t Irish and died not long after that
