Subject: RE: OBIT: Sir Nigel Hawthorne - RIP
I think that after I became aware of him through the "Minister" series, I always noticed him popping up in things and he always seemed to do such a great job and be having a wonderful time of it. If you haven't seen his Malvolio, it's absolutely great. And we just saw "Claus" where he turned in another great performance. I also remember seeing him in the quite forgettable Clint Eastwood vehicle, "Firefox." Once again though, his portrayal of the character, even in a stinker loke this one, was well done and very touching. Consummate actor.
