Max Von Sydow
« on: March 09, 2020, 11:21:23 AM »
I've always liked him.  And he's not above doing something on the campy side as he added a bit of class to Strange Brew, among others.  90 is a good run.  RIP.

Campy...like Ming in Flash Gordon (what an awful movie!)...Conan...quite lame too, except for that "what's best in life" quote I like...Strange Brew, eh hoser?...Blofeld in Never Say Never Again...Liet Keynes in the original Dune...Judge Fargo in Dredd (now he completed his long walk)...and towards the end...a Star Wars bit and the first Three-Eyed Raven in GOT.  Good run, good career...we should all be so fortunate.

I only ever saw him perform in ‘Minority Report’ - as a the bad guy.

He impressed me every time he was on screen. His role in The Exorcist is iconic. I loved him in the cult classic “Dune” as well.

His awesome voice was an integral part of it.
