On January 14, on 70 year of life, died the famous British actor and Director - Alan Rickman. "The actor and Director Alan Rickman died from cancer at the age of 69, surrounded by family and friends."



Rickman was born on 21 February 1946, in London. In his youth, he took part in Amateur productions and later for many years was for the audience of cinema and theatre the embodiment of a British acting school.

Rickman made his debut in the theatre, playing Valmont from "dangerous relationships" of Choderlos de Laclos. Seducer Valmont very impressed the British audience, then the show went to Broadway, and Rickman started getting offers from film producers. British actor also played the terrorist Hans Gruber, who was opposed by Bruce Willis in the legendary “Die hard", released in 1988. Besides his tremendous acting in the movie, Rickman could easily pretend to be speaking with an American accent, embodying on the screen of a German terrorist.

Villainous persecuted Rickman and further. In 1992, the adventure film "Robin hood: Prince of thieves" was screened out. Rickman in the film played the tough Sheriff of Nottingham, who seized the land of "Prince of thieves". I remember, and his other role – lascivious judge Turpin tape from Tim Burton's "Sweeney Todd, the demon Barber of fleet street". But Rickman’s role of the Professor Snape in the movie about wizard Harry Potter has become the main actor's work of the famous Briton for most modern young viewers.

The other side of the acting career of Alan Rickman – classic and historical movies and TV series. Many remember his Colonel Brandon from the film adaptation of Jane Austen's "sense and sensibility", physician Anton Mesmer from the TV series Roger Spotswood or Rasputin from the same series HBO, 1996. For this role Rickman got his only big acting award, a Golden globe, although, without a doubt, not a whole generation remembers the audience to participate in new year's hit "Real love", where he played husband Harry of changing his wife with his Secretary.
