RIP: Max von Sydow

What an actor, one of the true greats. Very famously known for his work with Bergman and his game of chess played with Death, he also was the voice of the three-eyed raven in Game of Thrones, he was in Stallone's Judge Dread, the 1984 Dune movie, Never Say Never Again, Strange Brew, Conan The Barbarian (he worked with both Stallone and Ahnold?!), Flash Gordan as Ming the Merciless, Footloose, Three Days of the Condor, The Exorcist, and The Seventh Seal, where he played that game of chess. He was 90. Quite a good run.

I just watched Three Days of the Condor recently on Prime. Excellent acting by all!

I picked up the ebook not too long ago and have the DVD. I may do a double-header in the not distant future.
