He was overlooked by the Oscars for a Best Actor nomination for Bottle Shock in 2008.

Mediocre movies don't garner many awards.

Another great Brit gone at 69. He of the mellifluous voice and wonderful sneer. Loved him in "Die Hard" but my favorite role for him was in "Galaxy Quest." A hoot! Like many great Brit actors a great stage actor. Wish they'd film these for those of us not close to great Theater districts.
