Everyone knows how talented Rickman was, but the fact that nobody has a bad word to say about him is a TRUE legacy. That is what we should all strive for in this world. I do love his tight jaw, and the way he uses it. It feels like that stoic British reserve, but 100x more. It seems like he's constantly struggling to hold back an emotion, whether it be white hot rage, pain and longing, or even suppressing a smirk. You can tell that something is just bursting to come out, but the character is afraid to let it loose, in case he loses control. It adds so much depth to his characters. He took what God had given him, and used it like a boss!
Alan Rickman was one of those actors that I would have happily sat for hours and just listened to his voice. Such a rich voice. Such a great actor. Such a tragic loss.
I was surprised to hear his speaking pace in conversation was about the same as his roles, naturally chilling!
Same
Agreed amazing voice so deep and rich ( find its great that he maintained an intimidating presence on the set to Radcliffe who then ( after filming was over discovered he was both funny and charming 😬
Agreed such an amazing voice 😬
He actually narrated an audio book for over 15 hours (Thomas Hardy's The Return of the Native). It's on audible and whenever I get stressed in my car I listen to it to calm me down.☺
Alan Rickman is the only actor that I truly cried when I heard the news that he'd died :( . The entertainment world just isn't the same without him :( .
No one can deliver a line like Alan. He is sorely missed 😢
Alan Rick an story
I agree, we lost a treasured ❤ actor😢
@@karenhammond7690the best actor in the world 😢😢😢😢😢😢
@Pagandream55 a absolutely (and much more) agree!
Evidently.
His voice is unforgettable,a gentle soul…he died too soon
Thinking about his passing still breaks my heart. He was one of a kind.
I still choke up. He was a favorite.
I totally agree.
I cannot believe people criticized his voice back in the day. His voice was magnificent, and he was a very talented man. Rest in Peace Alan, you will forever be in our hearts.
They don't like what they can't change or when people tell them no.
Always ❤
For me Rickman's brilliance is he was one of the few actors that was capable of being a Villain who creates empathy the "Always" line in the Harry Potter film is utterly heartbreaking and that's delivered by a guy who for five books and films has done nothing to create any feeling of goodwill
His voice was smooth as silk.
I thought his voice was just his accent
He certainly had a very special voice
He was a treasure, world dimmer without him.
He is amazing, I miss him still. 😢💙
You're absolutely right.
Absolutely.
Amen.
Don't be sad, rest in peace. Alan Rickman is always in our hearts.
He lived in London in the flat below my friends flat , a concert pianist and her brother a violinist , he never complained when they practised , he always said he enjoyed listing to the classical music .
Wow, such a wonderful man.. I miss him still!❤
As a child, I was in a stage musical with Alan Rickman.
It's never mentioned but I assure you, he could sing and dance too.
Sweeny Todd! His duet with Johnny Depp. Pretty Women. Creepy, yet beautiful.
So many of content creators either don't know the meaning of 'underrated' or just abuse the word to get views. Rickman wasn't underrated. He was one of the most celebrated actors (and movie villains) during his lifetime and still is very much celebrated and appreciated today.
I think the Creator being American is commenting that he is 'underrated' in America. He NEVER was in the UK. I remember seeing him at the RSC in 1985 in As you Like it (I think) where he just stood in the middle of the stage and did the "All the world's a stage" speech and thinking "Who the hell is that!". he was utterly compelling and remained so throughout his career, regardless of the role he played and considering his peers (in career rather than age terms) were Daniel Day Lewis, Gary Oldman, Colin Firth and Tim Roth - that's saying something.
@@OdeInWessex Yes, the creator is clearly saying that he's underrated in America, since they titled it "HOLLYWOOD'S Underrated Villain..." But the person that you're replying to is saying that the creator is either wrong in that assessment or or titled it that just get people to chick on the video because the title is ridiculous and I'd have to agree. Here in the U.S. he is widely, practically unanimously, considered to have played one of the greatest villains in the history of cinema in Die Hard and people were praising him when that film premiered in 1988. It's pretty silly to say someone is underrated when they're considered one of the best of all time and have been since their first movie role...
Exactly
I agree. And it also irritated me a bit. Rickman was celebrated for his skill and range, and considering how famous he became as Snape he was probably the most celebrated he ever had been in recent years.
And that is not even going into how many people will always remember him for Die Hard.
It's true that there is a huge catalogue of films with him, that those who only know him for his "big" roles don't know about and many fantastic ones among those as well, but despite him never winning an Academy Award (which is a shame) he certainly wasn't underrated.
@@OdeInWessex oh, that explains why he never bothers to pronounce the majority of the names correctly.
He wasn't just a villain. He played many roles. He did an outstanding "Colonel Brandon" in Sense and Sensibility (not my favorite version of that movie, but Alan gave a stellar performance). He is sorely missed.
Alan Rickman could convey a world of pain with a twitch of an eyelid
His voice has ALWAYS been my favorite thing about him. Wonderful actor, and person. He is very much missed.
yes, and his diction…his cadence…his precise pronunciation and stress on syllables when perturbed…
Alan Rickman left us all too early, a true gentleman who could play a very believable villain and aced it every time. And yes to me Die Hard is a Xmas movie 😅
Definitely a Christmas movie! 😂😂
Sitting in the movie theater for Die Hard..Alan Rickman first appears...my jaw dropped because he was so incredibly handsome...like he literally walked out of GQ Magazine 🥰..I thought to myself..OMG!! WHO...IS...THAT...GUY?? I loved him the moment I saw him on the big screen...a fabulous actor gone too young..too soon... ❤💔
Alan Rickman was one of the most impeccable actors there has ever been. His skills, wide ranging and always precise. His generosity of spirit is well attested to by the many brilliant actors with whom he worked. I have always known that I would not be disappointed by any performance, (live or filmed) that he gave. The world is darker for his passing, and richer for his having lived.🖤🇨🇦
Beautifully said
I miss Alan Rickman, he was one of the best actors this country has produced, that remarkable voice
Rickman was a mesmerizing actor in every role he played. I loved to hear him talk. His so called speech impediment was perfectly balanced by his silky smooth voice. He was far too young to have left us. He is sorely missed.
As of Saturday January 14, 2023, it will be seven years since Mr. Rickman passed. At age 69, it seems way too young. R.I.P. professor Snape. 😢
How time flies! SEVEN years? Seems like yesterday...
Same with David Bowie. Died less than a week before Alan, also aged 69 😞
@@chiefscheider Every actor and entertainer I have ever liked are all gone now.
@@LordMalice6d9Same here.
@@jscho8674 I barely watch any movies or television shows anymore. What do I have to look forward too? Most of what is released today is dreadful. And actors like Alan Rickman had more talent in their pinky nail than most millenial and gen z actors have in their entire bodies.
I had always dreamed of having Alan Rickman's voice as my GPS. I just think the way he would have said 'recalculating' would have been delicious. Thank you for posting this. Such a great loss of a truly wonderful man.
oh yes! That would have been great! Maybe someone proficient with AI could do it…
I absolutely loved him in Robin Hood! Now, knowing he invented the character himself makes me admire him even more. 🥰
He was the best thing about that movie,stole the show,such a wonderful talent,and a true Gentleman,I have the greatest fondness for him,he's sorely missed.
At a pre launch screening of Robin Hood, the audience cheered for Rickman and booed the hapless Kevin Costner. Costner, being the Star of the film was furious and demanded that Rickman's part be adjusted. Much of Rickman's performance was subsequently not used. Such a sap, that Costner.
@@MOGGS1942
That's just ugly gossip and isn't true. Costner has a reputation of being extremely generous and mentors younger actors.
When he was filming The Bodyguard he visited the local elementary school and talked to the kids there. He also sat in on a rehearsal at my college drama department. We didn't know he was there until it was over. He told us to go for our dream and never let anyone stop us if we truly wanted it.
Given his history and collaboration with Lawrence Kasdan I find it hard to believe that Kevin Costner would do such a thing.
Alan was a very unique man, the world is a much sadder place without him.
The Sheriff of Nottingham OMG🤣 Just brilliant 🙃
And had me laughing. I loved his sheriff. I'd love to know how he and Costner got on. Guess I'll buy his diaries.
One of the greatest actors of my generation! He always dominated and chewed up the scenery in every movie I saw him in! RIP Alan!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I fell in love with Rickman from the first moment I saw him. Quite certain I'm not alone. 😎
I always knew his character had more depth than initially indicated. My favorite of his HP scenes is when he emerged from a wardrobe closet dressed as Longbottom's fearsome grandmother. He pulled it off with absolute perfection.
I am so glad Rickman stayed with the HP movies. He played Snape so well, no one could have filled his shoes.
I fell in love with Alan in “Truly, Madly, Deeply”. I’ve looked for him in any movie. That voice!
Me too Loretta. The film also made me fall in love with Bach’s cello music.
I love that movie!! - and fell in love with Alan Rickman then - he was so sexy and wonderful!!!!!!
Me three
Closetland is my favourite.
This may have been the first time I saw Alan Rickman in a movie and I was instantly drawn to his talent and demeanor and sensitivity. Such a wonderful actor and person.
The fact that he flinched pulling the trigger is just adorable. What a beautiful human being. Brilliant. R.I.P Alan
Alan Rickman was a brilliant actor and he proved this in every film he did !
The world will miss him!❤❤❤
Broke my heart when he passed 🥺💔
Alan Rickman was & still remains one of my favourite actors, who starred in many of the best & my most favourite films of all time! To date, I still watch these films often, such as (order of my most loved): "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer", "Sense and Sensibility", "Love Actually", "Galaxy Quest", "Die Hard", and so on but too long to list them all. Although he has never won nor been nominated for an Oscar, I feel that he's truly an Oscar-worthy actor & definitely a strong contender and as such, he should have won at least one.
R.I.P. Mr. Rickman, you are truly missed... Thank you for your contribution into the world of acting & for making my love for films even more entertaining & pleasurable due to your brilliant work/craft! ⭐🤩⭐
They said: "Favorite Villain." I still remember him as Sir Alexander Dane. Right at the opening, when he was discussing his callbacks for doing Shakespeare had me rolling.
Alan was British and won a BAFTA (their version of an Oscar) for Best Supporting in "Robin Hood........" and won 16 other lesser known awards as well as being nominated for about 50 other awards.
I feel the same as you Gemstar- every time I watch a film with Alan, I always reflect on his amazing Talent and Versatility! I have quite a few DVD's in my collection/guilty pleasure films that Alan shines so prominently through. Especially his early work where every character is so unique and definitively Alan Rickman. He brought so much personality and heart to every single role.
"There were five curtain calls. I was an actor once, damn it. Now look at me. Look at me! I won't go out there and say that stupid line one more time.”- "By Grabthar's hammer, by the sons of Warvan, I shall avenge you!"... Miss you Alan- Godspeed to the great Theater in the sky
@@cozmicpfunk Well said... He's definitely a legend & an icon, whom we sadly lost too soon...
After discovering a few more things about him, I grew to admire him even more (ie: his strong work ethics), esp after it was revealed that he died from pancreatic cancer b/c most people would stop working to focus on their treatments & recovery. I can't even begin to imagine the tremendous amount of excruciating pain he was feeling while working on set & in between his cancer treatment sessions. All the while, he continued to work without ever complaining (ensuring to complete his contractual acting obligations), yet he remained a kind & sweet gentleman amongst his fellow actors, directors, film crew/staff & towards his beloved fans.
If ever a child, or anyone for that matter, is searching for a real & strong role model, rather than those social media influencers who only flaunts their materialistic belongings that hold no real value & who are here today but gone tomorrow, then that child or individual should look into Alan Rickman as a prime example for a role model in its truest form b/c there isn't a genuine person, esp one who knows him well that can speak badly about him. Furthermore, it is evident that he's loyal b/c he remained in the same long-term relationship with his college crush/wife until his very last day. Plus, he's extremely generous not just monetarily but also with his time. Part of that, he maintained his commitment to his charity organizations, which he donated part of the inheritance he left to them & the remainder to his wife & family siblings.
I love that you mentioned Galaxy Quest. He was such a riot in that role!!! Sense and Sensibility and what he did in Robin Hood were my favorites. Can't forget his magnificent Snape tho!
For me, his portrayal in Truly, Madly, Deeply will be what I remember him for most. My late husband and I adored that film, in fact he introduced it to me as “something I had to experience”. I look back now, and feel glad that in many ways it was Alan Rickman who prepared me for my life without my beloved husband.
That is my favorite. To lose David Bowie and Alan Rickman in 1 week....no words.
that is a beautiful memory
@@emq6892 Thank you, it truly is
@@anitadavidson1266 thanks for the Reminder. I truly mourned in that film
@@theresachung703 I think many many people sobbed their way through that film. It remains beautiful though.
Alan Rickman could and would have been an awesome audiobook author along with Morgan Freeman. So much potential we never got to see or hear.
Rickman was the best new villain since Jaws in the Bond movie. So calm , smart , confident and in control. And it took us All those Potter movies to love that character as much as Harry. Non book readers had no idea what was coming.
Alan Rickman was one of the best actors ever!!!! Fell in love with him in Sense and Sensibility!!!! So sad that such a talent died so young!!!! Will always remember him !!!!!!
And so lovely as Brandon, attractive as he was in Blow Dry.
Need to watch Truly, Madly, Deeply.
@@maryb8150 Can't. I tried. Too heartbreaking. And I don't like Stephenson that much. Thanks for your response.
@@maryb8150 where can i find that movie? Is it anywhere online? Thanks in advance :)
@@NikodineLuver29 l
I love all his film roles. No one has mentioned, "The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy", in which he played a depressed robot. 🥰😍😘
Alan Rickman as Marvin made that movie worth watching.
There will never be another like him, what an inspiring man and a tragic loss. He will be remembered......Always
What an incredible man! What an amazing life!! Yet, I still discovered so much during this documentary that I never knew beforehand. I was aware of the extreme diversity of the characters he played and his immense talent, but there was so much more to this man's life that will always leave me in awe. One of the most underrated performers of this era, yet one that I will never forget and be ever so grateful for being a witness to a career of such magnitude. I admired him for staying true to himself and for being the best that he could be. Those who are blessed with real talent, do not need to search for fame nor notoriety and are satisfied with completing the projects involved with, one by one. Alan didn't seek fame or a lavish lifestyle of riches, but was content with all that he had. It will always be those that we have relied upon to be there, that will be sadly missed now that they've gone. I tip my hat to you, dear Colonel Brandon, a true gentleman and a performer that will be forever greatly missed, but never forgotten.🇦🇺💖🕊
Soooo well put 🙌💔
@@Glm867 Thank you Gina.💖💐
I admired how Versatile he was in his roles and not typecast but played many roles and he spoke very clearly. It was sad to hear he is gone now. I wonder if he ever played Shakespeare. He would have been terrific in the roles of his plays. Good guy or bad guy. I liked him best in Galaxy Quest. Hope you get to see it! Funny and clever playing an actor playing a real alien on a real space ship. The best always! I do miss him.
@@marvahuff635 Early on in his career he joined the Royal Shakespeare Company, left and returned again later on. Alan was so talented he could take on any role and make it believable. Unfortunately, Galaxy Quest was one that escaped me but I'll definitely be keeping my eye out now. I'm always looking up actors when watching a movie and when watching Sense and Sensibility, I was shocked to think that the loveable Colonel Brandon was the comedic Sheriff of Nottingham and the 'bad guy' from Die Hard. He could play any role, but do it so very well.💖
Not only the perfect villain but also the perfect lover. I had a crush on him after watching Sense and Sensibility. He was perfect in that rol.
Same ❤
Ditto😄
He could play just about anything.
I was deeply saddened by his passing. He was unique will always be one of my favorites.
A man that I just loved. Broke my heart when he passed. Love you Alan. Always
I just loved Allen Rickman R.I.P. ❤️
I first remember him as the villain in Quigley Down Under and thinking: why do I like him so much? Another memory was his role in Sense and Sensibility as the ultimate decent man. So many other favorites. Thank you for this biography.
He had that quality about him ..... even when playing a ruthless villain you couldn't help but be attracted to him. And he did it so effortlessly!
I have adored this man since i first saw him in a BBC adaptation of the Barchester Chronicles and followed his work. When Truly Madly Deeply came out i adored it and who knew it would help me last October when my husband also called Alan died. His voice, wow! Galaxy Quest is another fave of mine as is An awfully big adventure, the list is endless. RIP Mr Rickman, your so missed.
Like others, I saw him in Truly, Madly, Deeply and sat up and said "WHO IS THAT???". I was hooked from then on. Like most great actors, he had a unique something that stood out. But he had a bout a dozen unique things. I'll miss him more than I already do.
I'm going to miss his acting. I can only imagine him being part of a family and how they feel. Just a huge hollow hurt that is full of love of someone who once was.
One of the world's best actors.
He was extremely talented. Could completely envelope a character. I loved what he did in ,"Galaxy Quest". Absolutely brilliant.
Loved him in Robin Hood, "and call off Christmas!" was hilarious. He was a very versatile actor & I loved him in all I've seen. It's Harry Potter that cinched my love for this actor, no one could have guessed he was sick. His love of Lilly resulting in the one word line "always" sums up my being a fan of all he left us to remember him by.
I met him in my hometown of St Andrews Scotland when he was there doing a play at the Byre Theatre. Not only was he a wonderfully kind and gracious man, but he was also REALLY TALL!!!
Can we meet for a round of Golf? I'll bring my Mashie Kniblet and Brassie!
Alotta tall people there . Members of Led Zeppelin are over 6 feet tall .
Sure, everyone says Snape was Rickman's defining character, but for me, Colonel Brandon in Sense and Sensibility was quintessential Rickman. "Give me an occupation, Miss Dashwood or I shall run mad" is one of the greatest lines in cinema. He conveys desperate love and fear of loss so beautifully.
My heart is still broken that he is gone.
p.s. Yates was the worst thing to happen to HP
He was one of my favorite actors, always the best in every part. Loved him long before Harry Potter, such a great actor…gone too soon.
I teared up just as I did when I learned of his passing. What a wonderful man & actor! This was well done, thank you!
Alan Rickman was one of the finest actors of his era, and did it in such away that endeared him to the audience.
HIs portrayal of letting love go in 'Truly madly deeply' was so touching.
He is sorely missed! He was amazing in everything he was in. My favourite will always be Snape and Colonel Brandon. He totally embodied those roles and stole my heart 💖
The world became a much sadder place when he died, his brilliant wonderful talent, his beautiful voice was extinguished forever. His ability to be what ever he wanted to be a Robin Hood, or a Snape. Elliot Marston. His magic was forever put down..
The most fun: Robin Hood. The most pathos: Harry Potter. The one that made me say 'wow'... The Song of Lunch. But I'll watch anything he's in because I know I'll enjoy it.
Absolutely wonderful. The world hasn't been the same without Alan Rickman in it. Miss him dearly.
Probably my favorite performance from Rickman. I love his comedic timing.
I still Break Down every time I hear his “Always”! RIP!
I surely miss seeing Alan Rickman and all he brought to the screen.
We're lucky we have his films...
Me tooo 😢
Amazing actor! Phenomenal voice! ❤ Was he knighted? He should’ve been if not.
Pancreatic cancer is horrific! So sad he had to endure that. 😢
I’ll forever remember him as Severus Snape and the Sheriff of Nottingham. His ability to play essentially a bad guy, but with the humour and character depths that evoked sympathy from the audience was truly breathtaking to watch. He is dearly missed. ❤❤❤
I'm not a good critic, but he was dazzling as the Sheriff. Scenery chewing so extreme as to be good. The scene in which he tries to rape Marian is somehow awful but not scary.
He wouldn't have accepted a Knighthood, and I don't blame him.
@@OdeInWessex you know he wouldn’t? How’s that?
@@waterdragon2224 He was not a fan of the royalist system, to say the least. I think he was definitely offered it and even more definitely, he declined. Just one more reason to love him.
@@girlwhomustnotbenamed4139 interesting. Thank you for the information. I didn’t know that about him. My father felt the same way.
Rickman added a necessary sinister class to the movie. It brought the movie up a level and the combination of Rickman with Willis was magnetic. You could not take your eyes off of either.
Diehard is our family’s favorite Christmas movie! We watch it every Christmas!!!
I MISS ALAN SO MUCH
Alan was fabulous! One of my favorite actors! When I heard he died, I was so upset and sad for his family because he was such a precious person, you could tell on screen he was! Great actor, always hugely perfect in each of his roles!
I adored him in "Sense & Sensibility", but I admired him in all his roles.
I loved his voice, so original! I could hear his voice and know it was him, a distinctive character of a man!
I miss him still...
Love to his family, what a man!
Between he and David Bowie leaving, it was a tough time.
A wonderful tribute to an incredible man, and a fabulously talented actor.
Sitting here wondering why I am bawling my eyes out...... but then I remember, because it's Alan Rickman. What a genuine loss to this world. His absence is greatly felt.
Same
One of my favorite actors ever. RIP Alan.
I was never a big Harry Potter fan, but had a girlfriend who wanted me to see the movies with her. Rickman as Snape was my favorite characters, and his turn from a villain to a hero was great!
He can execute every single thought of the character and emotion in his expressions. Just subtle details they are and its amazing. He will be missed
Alan Rickman has always been one of my top 3 favorite 'villians'. I love him ! He does it so well, even in comedies. If a movie included Alan Rickman, it could be guaranteed that I would watch it.
His passing was heartbreaking, just knowing we would never be blessed with his presence on the screen again.
Alan Rickman was a fantastic actor no matter what role he took on. I think he was also a really good man. He was respected because he gave respect to others. That is a rare thing. Rest in peace, Mr. Rickman.
I loved this man as an actor a speaker, writer and a lovely person..his voice was amazing..so missed..
The first time I ever saw Alan Rickman was on Die Hard, and yes I was mesmerized. I was intrigued by him and followed his career closely afterwards, he was brilliant.
There was depth, substance and meaning about this man. God Bless him.
He was wonderful at playing villains but actually his few heroic roles are much more underrated. I have to admit, I had a major crush on him. Was devastated at his passing.
I had a crush on him as well
He was just wonderful. I enjoy his movies. He is missed.
He was one of a kind. Excellent and elegant and rather cheeky. And I LOVED A Little Chaos. Thanks for this video.
The end made me cry. He was so fabulous. Won’t ever be anyone like him. Die Hard was the first movie I saw him in. I watch it EVERY Christmas lol. He will always be Snape to me
This is so well done. My favorite role was the voice of the depressed robot in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It showed his range and humor.
I love the sound of his VOICE! Such delicious resonance! He Created an Iconic Character SO True to the Book.!.
"When I'm 80 years old and sitting in my rocking chair, I'll be reading Harry Potter. And my family will say to me, 'After all this time?' And I will say, 'Always'." - a fifteen year old girl on Tumblr. Alan Rickman never said this.
He is a Titan of an Actor, there I said it. the world loss a great talent upon his passing
I always thought he stole whatever scene he was in. And what a unique voice. He is missed.
Voice, yes, but also his mastery of motion (watch his hands, every way he moves, large or small) and expression. He was every person he portrayed, not someone ACTING like that person. Non pareil as an actor and person. RIP. He will not be forgotten. 🥀 💐
I love all his movies. What an incredible man and actor! And that voice! Love it.
I distinctly remember the first time I saw Die Hard and said out loud, who is this bad guy... he's good!!!!! Liked him in every movie I saw after.
Everything I learn about him makes me even sadder for his passing. He was (and hope still is) as wonderful as ever.
Thank you so much. Can’t believe it’s almost 7 years since we lost him. I cried again.
What a wonderfully versatile actor, great characters he played to perfection. His part in the film Quigley Down Under was made for him, fabulous performance, and now so missed by so very many.
RIP Alan, you encouraged so many with your characters you played, bringing out the best in others.
Truly an Iconic human being. He will be missed always. God Bless Alan Rickman
Alan Rickman was the greatest actor to live. I LOVE his voice. I would have given anything to study acting with his guidance. His role as Professor Snape was his legacy.
To this day he is missed and always will be. Amazing Actor!!!
Beautifully crafted! Thank you so very much! I'm taking a moment to wipe my tears and blow my nose now....I miss him
I know Harry Potter is fictional but can you imagine the burden that Severus carried on his shoulders and was still able to keep his feelings hidden from Voldemort. Alan Rickman was made for the part of Severus Snape.
R.I.P. Alan Rickman
