Stunning. Peter spills and sputs out anger, fear, and a mad-loath of emotions. Stunning. We miss you always.
-
This is a brilliantly powerful performance. A true class act.
-
This guy was a fucking badass. He's easily the most legitimate actor in a lot of films he's in.
-
watching this clip, i realize how much i'll miss Mr Postlewaite - whom i can ALWAYS count on to deliver an engaging performance no matter how huge or small a role he has in any given film.
-
Listen here to that voice. He was a fine actor and striking presence in whatever he was in. From the first moments I laid eyes on him (In The Name Of The Father) I was “hooked”. I found him an unforgetable screen presence. RIP.
-
Is there a record of this play? Was it filmed? It would be such a pity of his performance was lost.
-
RIP to a legend
-
This performance reduced me to tears it's so good.
-
Rest in peace Pete, you gave us so much...
-
Rest In Peace Mr. Postlethwaite.

He had no idea he was in a play. Pete just does this every day after dinner.
