I watched "The Town" last night. When I saw the headline this morning my first thought was that he'd been shot in the bollocks.
I saw him last night too, in Inception (in which he died). 
I've never seen any of his films. Is it possible to pronounce his surname without sounding as though you've got a lisp?

This has to be impossible.
He was good in Sharpe as well.
EDIT * The fact that Ben hasn't seen even one of his films*
You must have seen The Usual Suspects, Ben?
And if you haven't, the cripple did it.
I watched Solomon Kane today. He was in it. And yes, he died.
Spoooooky.

Actually no! Not this time, anyway.

Yes. Nick Bartlett lent it to me in 2000. Can't remember much else about it though.
