I just realized today he would have made an amazing Mr Rochester. The shame! The wasted opportunity! Why didn’t anyone cast him in this? Especially when he was in his 40s-early 50s. He would have been so perfect for that role!

Alan Rickman is a brilliant actor. The intense subjectivity of his gestures is as charming as they are so smooth and delicate. The way he moves his eyes, his eyebrows, his hands, his face, his body, his lips ; everything is so controlled but so gracious and light that it seems done without thinking but I'm truly sure that he is doing it on purpose. When he is on the screen he's so magnetic you have to look at him, he gets your attention with his subtle gestures, He is captivating. What a pity I'm not a native english speaker I don't get everything he is saying with his british accent and watch his movies without his unique voice is just a great waste. His face at 0:46 ; 1:58 ; 2:30 -2:34 ; 3:06 ; 4:02 - 4:10 is priceless XD

I agree with all you have said.When Alan talks about Fred Astaire whose dancing he must have admired Alan said Astaire practised til his feet bled so that it looked effortless. No doubt Alan subscribed to the same level of work . He even remarks often about the female actresses that were completely prepared and how it was the absolute right way to work. He was the Vice Chairman of RADA and prior to that was on a number of important committees at the drama school. Am I the only person that thinks Slope's behaviour when having tea with Mrs Bold and her sister in law was very prissy, stirring his cup and facial expressions are very deliberately mannered and not manly I am thinking, a little bit beyond best manners. Just a thought, it is deliberate of course. The meeting of the Bishop and his wife with Grantly and Mr Harding Slope glides around the room quietly and so slinky

Weather was awful,mood was awful and i ,suddenly,decided to watch all HP movies again.It was time,when i rediscovered Alan Rickman,It was time,when i found that he passed away. So...now i try to find his old films,watch them and try to understand this wonderful actor a bit better. It seems,he preferred roles in romantic movies. Do i right? For me,he is as a villain much better. It looks like he didn't like to play villains. What a pity!

li Tanja It’s not that he didn’t like to play them. It’s that he didn’t only want to be recognized for only those type of roles. His approach to playing those characters was that he didn’t really think of them as simply cardboard cutout villains. He was more interested in what motivated them to do the things they did, no matter how evil.
