Anthony Minghella

Oscar winning director Anthony Minghella passed away on Tuesday morning. According to a spokesman he suffered a brain homorrhage following an operation the previous week to remove cancer of the tonsils and neck at Charing Cross Hospital in London. Several of Minghella’s friends and colleagues, including Jude Law, Kevin Spacey, Ralph Fiennes and Gwyneth Paltrow paid tribute. Other tributes came from Prime Minister Gordon Brown, John Berry, BBC creative director Alan Yentob, producer Lord Puttnam and fellow director Sydney Pollack, Minghella’s partner in their production company Mirage Enterprises.
Minghella was just 54 and so talented. He directed films like “The Talented Mr. Ripley”, “Cold Mountain” and “The English Patient”.So sad!
