Remembering Alan Rickman (1946-2016)



Like most Americans, my first exposure to Alan Rickman was in "Die Hard" where he played the nasty-bad villain against Bruce Willis' hero. Then, we saw him all through the Harry Potter series, playing the nasty-bad Professor Severus Snape.  But he made us laugh in "GalaxyQuest".  While searching through his repertoire, I found this clip from "Rasputin" where he plays the title role. 

In it, he has a confrontation with a young James Frain (the nasty-bad mayor in "Gotham"), two meanies going up against each other.  Wonderful!  I must find this movie.
