    I believe John Hurt is worthy of a Clutch Fans BBS Hangout thread...if only for his scene in "Alien" which was one of the greatest moments in cinematic history. The guy was a great actor. I was looking at his IMDB page and I got tired of scrolling through all his movie credits since like 1960. I think we've all seen him in a ton of stuff...even if we can't name everything. One of the later films that comes to mind is "Snowpiercer". I loved his grit and what he brought as an actor. He seemed like the kind of guy to sit around a campfire with and he could tell you some great stories in a way only he could. His delivery and voice would draw your attention every time. He brought a uniqueness to acting that will be missed.

    Incredibly great actor in everything he did, even when the script was crap. RIP
