Wow, what a shock. I'm looking forward to seeing his ' Number One Ladies Detective Agency'. I am so sorry he's gone, but awfully glad this movie was finished.

I LOVE his books! What a great writer! Hey, 90 years old, though. He lived a long life.

Oscar-winning actor Paul Scofield dies

LONDON - Paul Scofield, the towering British stage actor who won international fame and an Academy Award for the film "A Man for All Seasons," has died. He was 86.

Scofield died Wednesday in a hospital near his home in southern England, agent Rosalind Chatto said. He had been suffering from leukemia.

Scofield made few films even after the Oscar for his 1966 portrayal of Tudor statesman Sir Thomas More. He was a stage actor by inclination and by his gifts — a dramatic, craggy face and an unforgettable voice that was likened to a Rolls Royce starting up or the rumbling sound of low organ pipes.

Even his greatest screen role was a follow up to a play — the London stage production of "A Man for All Seasons," in which he starred for nine months. Scofield also turned in a performance in the 1961 New York production that won him extraordinary reviews and a Tony Award.

"With a kind of weary magnificence, Scofield sinks himself into the part, studiously underplays it, and somehow displays the inner mind of a man destined for sainthood," Time magazine's said.

I loved him. One of my favorite all time performances by an actor was his performance in A Man for All Seasons.

Wow, that picture of Paul brings back the knee weakening emotions of my pre-pubescent self.

What an incredible contribution Neil made to the band. I had no idea...
