...And I also remember him as "Brewmeister Smith" in Strange Brew.

But in all seriousness, Von Sydow was one of the greats.

“The Night Visitor” was a real gem. Also the hit man with ethics in Three Days of the Condor.

Rest in peace, Max.

I only remember him from “Hawaii” with Julie Andrews. His character was grotesque, but his acting was wonderful.

He was hilarious in “Hannah and her Sisters” as the older artist boyfriend.

Let’s not forget him as King Osric in Conan the Barbarian. A great actor.

Starting at 4:50 in interview, he tells about being a doubter, but Ingmar Bergman said he would send a message after he died. Max said he heard from him, but would not give details. He said he was not a doubter anymore.
