R.I.P., John Hurt

I always enjoyed his performances.  :(  From Yahoo:

John Hurt, the esteemed British actor known for his burry voice and weathered visage — one that was kept hidden for his most acclaimed role, that of the deformed John Merrick in David Lynch’s The Elephant Man — has died, according to reports from several British newspapers. He was 77.

Rest in peace, Mr. Hurt.
