YOu might know him as the actor in "Die Hard" or the Harry Potter movies.
He may be talented but I predict the ending will be flat.
Sorry.

Another leftie actor letting me down. Indulging in anti-Israel and anti-Semitic hatred. Steeped in The Guardian mindset. Sad, sad.

And the bulldozer stage prop has big Israeli and American flags sticking out of it, and Halliburton painted on the side, right?

That's a shame. Rickman is an outstanding actor, but he's a fool if he idolizes Saint Jemima.

to stand between a bulldozer and a Palestinian home?This line says all you need to know about the slant this thing is going to take. Evil bulldozer versus innocent Palestinian home. Indeed.

Why did a 23-year-old woman leave her comfortable American life to stand between a bulldozer and a Palestinian home?Because she didn't know how to move far away enough?

Also played a great bad guy in Quigly Down Under. And a bad guy in Kevin Costner's Robin Hood,Prince of Thieves.

His Sheriff of Nottingham saved the otherwise abominable Robin Hood.
I was rooting for *him*....;))
