Morlock 11 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I met him once, and he was about as nice a guy as I could've imagined. I am shocked and very saddened by this news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hlao-roo 389 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 A fine director gone. And the under-commissioned Gabriel Yared loses his most prominent collaborator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robthehand 3 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Very sad news, and totally unexpected. How did he die?No details yet, according to wiki, so I'd assume it was some natural cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitch 57 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I was shocked and saddened to hear that one of Britain's leading and most talented directors died this morning. Being a big fan of Minghella for many years, this news really has gutted me to the core. I am a big fan of THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY and while many people were bored to tears at his movie THE ENGLISH PATIENT...this gentle fella has been the closest Britain has ever gotten to having another David Lean in their midst. A truly terrible day for British film industry and to the cinema world in total.Hitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 11 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I just picked up the newest Time magazine, and it has an article about a project Minghella was working on. That's sad irony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxbabe 28 Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 This is terribly sad, and too soon...his movies were intelligent and pure class. Rest in Peace, and prayers to his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
