Dia anak Tanah Melayu?

Sebenarnya telah lama seorang anak kelahiran Tanah Melayu yang berjaya diperingkat antarabangsa.

Tak pernah aku dengar sebelum ini Tanah Melayu ini mempunyai seorang bintang filem.

Tak kira lah dia bangsa mat salleh tetapi dia tetap anak kelahiran Tanah Melayu ini.

Dan sememang nya aku berhak tumpang bangga dan takziah diatas kematiannya.



Malaysian-born British actor dies

Michael Gough, the beloved British character actor whom many will remember from the pre-Chris Nolan Batman movies, has passed away aged 94.

Born in Kuala Lumpur, Gough made his film debut in 1947 in Blanche Fury and went on to achieve fame in British television.

He made two memorable appearances as villains in Doctor Who - first as the titular villain of the second Doctor serial The Celestial Toymaker in 1966, then as a Time Lord councillor in league with Omega in the fifth Doctor serial Arc of Infinity in 1983.

He also married Anneke Wills, an actress who played one of the Doctor's companions on the show.

His big screen credits are even more impressive with key roles in Harold Pinter's The Go-Between, Laurence Olivier's Richard III, Sydney Pollack's Out of Africa, John Huston's A Walk With Love and Death, Franklin J. Schaffner's The Boys from Brazil, Wes Craven's The Serpent and the Rainbow, Martin Scorsese's The Age of Innocence, Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow and Corpse Bride, and the film adaptation of Frederick Forsyth's The Fourth Protocol.

Most will recognise him for his work in the role of Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred Pennyworth in the four big-budget Batman movies that Tim Burton and Joel Schumacher were involved in from 1989 to 1997.
