Guy Hamilton - RIP

Post by Weybridge »

One of the great spy-film directors.

A name not as household as others this year, but still had the following on his CV :

Goldfinger
Live and Let Die
The Man With The Golden Gun
Diamonds Are Forever
Funeral in Berlin
The Battle of Britain

not to mention being Assistant Director to Carol Reed on The Third Man. He could dine out on that one on its own.

RIP Guy Hamilton.

What an impressive list of accomplishments in the world of film he has to his name.

Into the Green Room just outside the pearly gates and join all the other major celebs waiting to be processed.

Famous people of a certain age are now nervously hoping they can negotiate their way through the year 2016 without any medical scares!
Stop looking for solutions to symptoms and start identifying the disease.

RIP.
Out of all those previously listed Funeral in Berlin & BoB are my favs. The aerial scenes for BoB are amazing even today (no CGI back then).
