We're losing so may greats this year.
Now Richard Attenborough joins his Great Escape co-star James Garner, just a matter of weeks later.

He made a great contribution to World film, as an actor, director and producer, and was a thoroughly decent guy.

There are just too many films to list, but among my favourites were Brighton Rock, Whistle Down the Wind, Young Winston, The Great Escape, The Magic Christian, Oh, What a Lovely War, Miracle on 34rd Street.

And Ghandi was a masterpiece.

R.I.P. You deserve it!

Yes, he does deserve it.....RIP Sir Richard

+1 on all the ones you listed, especially Miracle on 34th Street. He made Santa Claus seem real in that film.
I always enjoyed his acting, a true beacon of the business!

"seem" real - What are you saying Steve?

Simply put, but precise! Yes, he did seem a very likeable and genuine man.

I meant "for a Hollywood Santa" Dave.
