Sad to hear of the passing of Bernard Hill. Many will know of him as King Theoden in Lord of The Rings but for me if there was ever a performance that could be called iconic, it was Bernard Hill as Yosser Hughes, a man who had lost everything.

Mental health wasn’t really talked about back then, but his portrayal of a man who’s life was destroyed by Thatcherism in the 80's was an important representation of what 1,000s of men were suffering, and suffering in silence.

But let's not forget his many other roles in Titanic, Wolf Hall, Golden Years, Shirley Valentine to various documentary voice overs.

RIP Bernard Hill💔

rest in peace bernard hill 🫶😭

Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count.

Now you know there was a man named Jack Dawson. And that he saved me, in every way a person can be saved. I don't even have a picture of him. He exists now only in my memory. TITANIC (1997) dir. James Cameron
