GRANDE también en MAYERLING, que protagonizó junto a una diosuna (como siempre) Deneuve.
Descanse en paz.
Descansen en paz Amanda Peterson y Omar Shariff. Mira, de la primera es una putada tan joven y del segundo también, aunque con su edad...era esperable 
De la Peterson donde más la recuerdo es en la de No Puedes Comprar Mi Amor.

Ese final de la peli es encantador. Y las fotos
Creo que tuvo problemas con las drogas, una pena, tan joven. En principio, el motivo de su muerte está calificado como que sufría apnea del sueño, pero no quitaria el hecho de la cocaína. Y pensar que tenía cuatro años más que yo
Roger Rees ha muerto: El actor que ganó la fama como ‘Nicholas Nickleby’ fallece a los 71 años
Roger Rees, who won a Tony Award for his performance as the title character in The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby, died Friday in New York. The Welsh-born actor was 71 and had worked almost until the end of his life until declining health forced him to withdraw from his final role in John Kander and Fred Ebb’s musical The Visit earlier this year. Cause of death was not reported.
Rees gained fame 35 years ago for his performance in David Edgar’s epic adaptation of the 1839 novel by Charles Dickens. Running time for the Royal Shakespeare Company version on London’s West End was something like 10 hours including intermissions. Actual running time was about 8 1/2 hours. Airing in four episodes, an RSC recording of the stage production became Channel 4’s first drama.
The play moved to Broadway in 1981, winning multiple Tonys including Best Play and Best Director for Trevor Nunn in addition to the acting nod for Rees. A production also also aired on U.S. TV in 1983, winning an Emmy for Best Limited Series and earning Rees his only Emmy nomination.
Rees later appeared in a recurring role on NBC’s Cheers as a snooty British millionaire by the name of Robin Colcord — the love interest Kirstie Alley’s Rebecca Howe. He starred in the British sitcom Singles from 1988 to 1991. He also appeared in TV’s The West Wing as UK ambassador to the U.S. Lord John Marbury. Rees became a U.S. citizen in 1989.
Rees also played Peter Bogdonavich in Bob Fosse’s Star 80, a movie about the tragic life and death of Playboy Playmate Dorothy Stratten. Other movies included Mel Brooks’ Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Frida and The Prestige.
He got into theater by way of his education in art. While painting scenery at Wimbledon Theatre, he was asked to fill what turned out to be the lead role in a play. He segued to the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1967, performing in The Comedy of Errors, Three Sisters, The Merchant of Venice, Othello, Twelfth Night and Cymbeline. He later worked with Tom Stoppard, beginning with the London production of The Real Thing. He also appeared in Stoppard’s Hapgood as a Russian double agent.
He returned to Broadway in a version of The Red Shoes and then in a 1995 production of Cocteau’s romantic comedy Indiscretions along with Kathleen Turner, Eileen Atkins, Cynthia Nixon and a young Jude Law. He earned a Tony nomination for Red Shoes and won an Obie Award in Jon Robin Baitz’s The End of the Day.
After Rees turned to writing and directing, he and his husband, writer Rick Elice, collaborated on Peter and the Starcatchers, based on the novel by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson. Co-directed by Rees and Alex Timber, the show debuted at the La Jolla Playhouse and traveled to Off Broadway then to Broadway in 2012. It earned several Tony noms, including one for Rees and Timbers. Rees went on the following year to appear in an acclaimed revival of Terence Rattigan’s The Winslow Boy.

- Uno de mis actores españoles favoritos. Genial cascarrabias especializado en papeles de funcionario, señorito o empresario de gran corazón y pico de oro. Inspiración del gran personaje de cómic Martínez el Facha creado por Kim y uno de los mejores secundarios del cine español. Incombustible "Saza". Recuerdo una viñeta en la que intenta entrar en TVE con la gente de su partido para un míting político y los vigilantes dicen: "¡Déjale pasar hombre!.... ¿No ves que es el "Saza"?
Hizo de todo, incluso protagonizar (una de las escasas ocasiones en que fue verdaderamente protagonista) en los 80 la teleserie "Tot un senyor" (Todo un señor), en la que encarnaba a un sibarita empleado de banca de Barcelona al que trasladan a un pequeño pueblecito. El traslado le rompe el corazón pero poco a poco se deja conquistar por el ambiente rural donde encuentra las amistades que el faltan y al final el amor. La serie le hizo ganar un TP de Oro al mejor actor. La tenéis en la mulita y es de lo más entrañable.
Y para recordarle con una sonrisa, un momento mítico como todos los de los Maestros Berlanga y Azcona.
- "¡Pero si son pelos de coñooooo!"

Pues vaya, creo que con Saza se nos ha ido el último de los grandes secundarios del cine español que surgieron a mediados del siglo XX. Afortunadamente, la cantera de grandes secundarios en nuestro cine no se ha agotado aún, pero da una pena inmensa ver morir a toda una época de nuestro cine. Afortunado homenaje el del compañero Lennoniano, referenciando uno de los grandes papeles de Saza.

Un saludete.

Gran Saza, descansa en pau!

Si hay un personaje secundario carismático, con el don de captar tu atención simplemente con su forma de hablar tan correcta y díctica, acentuada y remarcada, ese es Saza.
Habrá hecho infinidad de papeles pero a mi me puede en "Amanece que no es poco". Se nos va un grande, pero grande grande.
Momentos que sólo el cine patrio puede deparar y que son, para mi gusto, eternos e imprescindibles.

Tengo pendientísima la muy ochentera "Hell comes to Frogtown", con Piper on it:
Espero caspa y diversión. Ahora tocará verla en plan tributo
Descanse en paz.
