A Prince Amongst Actors
Just watching IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER again (saw it first when it came out in High School) and had to take a break to just collect myself after the scene where Daniel Day-Lewis tells his father(played by Mr. Postelthwaite) that he's hated him all his life --two great performances...Day-Lewis plays the histrionics of the scene well, but it's anchored by Postlethwaite. Such a fine, fine actor he was.
