did he die of a brain hemorrhage? I thought it was a hemorrhage in his throat.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
It was a haemorrhage after throat surgery. Don't know where it was, though.
I was just quoting from the Slate article.
From IMDb:
....from a brain hemorrhage at London's Charing Cross Hospital, where he had undergone a routine operation on his neck.
dang. thanks for the info.
if you're me, you've also developed a debilitating, lifelong crush on Alan Rickman
Oh yes. TMD gave me my Rickman love, my love as well for Juliet Stevenson, and my love for Neruda.
I hadn't known it was originally a tv production, though. Now I guess I can stop looking for it in widescreen.
a debilitating, lifelong crush on Alan Rickman
I suffer from this as well, although I don't know that I'd call it suffering, really.
Fell REALLY in love with him in Lee's S&S. It was cemented in Dogma.
Robin Hood, baby.
TMD, all the way. I don't think I'd really paid attention to him before that. I think Robin Hood cemented it, though. Two such polar opposite characters and you didn't think of it as "Alan Rickman playing...."
My favorite Rickman, aside from Snape, is probably Colonel Brandon in Sense and Sensibility.
Look! We're the same again!!!
