A Sunset for Minghella - Pentax Photo by Mel
This morning I read of the death of film director Anthony Minghella.
It was one of those 'OH, NO' moments where you exclaim loudly at the screen in disbelief.
I love 'The English Patient'. It's one of the few films which in my view is better than the book.
Over the years, I have read articles about Minghella with wonder and admiration. I remember reading about his struggle to raise money and his insistence on casting unknown actors like Kristen Scott Thomas.
The world will be a poorer place without him.
