His music was in the soundtracks for a lot of movies. The last one was "Twenty feet from stardom" in 2013.

I've seen six of his movies. Of those, "Truly, madly, Deeply" stands out in my mind as deserving of more notice. I haven't seen any of his television work, but his movies were well-chosen, for which I thank him and everyone else associated with them smiley - ok.

When an actor dies at an advanced age, chances are his/her most highly acclaimed work was done decades ago, quite often when I was too young to have seen much of it. There are, of course, exceptions [Christopher Plummer, Maggy Smith, etc.].....

Another death that deserves to be noted in passing.
Posted here because the report said she died just before new year.

Deborah Bone smiley - rose

Who? you ask

Apparently she was the lass Jarvis Cocker referred to in Disco 2000.
But it turns out she did a lot of other worthwhile things in her life.
