Farewell, Alan Rickman

I cannot believe this the second time this week that I find myself mourning.

 

Today the beloved actor Alan Rickman, passed way due to cancer. He was 69 years old.



Once more the world has lost an enormous amout of talent.
The news of Alan Rickman's death came as a huge shock. He was a fantastic actor and you can tell by the messages that former coleagues and friends are leaving in his honour that he was a fantastic person as well.


The reason why I am very familiered with his work is, of course, because of his role as Severus Snape in the Harry Potter movies. Even though there is a some controversy about the age of the character we can all agree that he played that part perfectly, and no one can imagine the movies with a different actor.

To me and to all the people who grew up with the Harry Potter movies today is a very sad day.
