    Never much of a 'star' but a finer actor than many who are so called.

    You will be missed.

    Great actor - My favourite film of his was Escape to Victory but we can't forget he was Ming the Merciless in Flash. R.I.P.

    I suspect a bit more acceptable than Carl Adolf von Sydow.

    RIP Max.

    Very popular at the Valley, whenever anyone stood up people would shout 'Sydow'.

    Apologies.
  • Cracking actor who seemed to have be about for ever. RIP.

    It hasn’t got many if any mentions in the obituaries or tributes I’ve read, but the first film that came into my head when I heard the news was ‘The Greatest Story Ever Told’ where he played Christ.

    A fine actor.

    RIP

    Great actor - I saw him on stage in The Tempest at The Old Vic in the early eighties. Great presence. RIP.
