What a dreadful way to start 2011, the announcement of the death of the great Pete Postlethwaite. In a cultural landscape dominated by mediocrity and stupidity, we can ill afford to loose men of this calibre. Mr Postlethwaite was one of those rare breed of actors who could be used as a referee for any film or production - quite simply if he was there it was worth watching.
We should be grateful that he left behind a impressive body of work, but one cannot help thinking that he had so much more to give. Very, very, sad. RIP Mr Postlethwaite and thank you for the work you leave behind.
