This makes that scene near the end of Inception where his character is lying
on his deathbed a little eerie.

| 4. Wow. Great as Lawyer Kobayashi in "Usual Suspects" and the Florist in "The Town". |
|
I was really impressed by this guy but he was certainly not looking too good in "The Town" and I suppose I know why now. RIP.

| 6. RIP, Pete Postlethwaite! |

Pete Postlethwaite was a good actor, and the only good actor in Ben Affleck's "The Town", except for Jeremy Renner, who played the role of the PCP-crazed, psychotic "Jem" rather well.
I also might add that Pete Postlethwaite was also good in "The Apostle", and "The Name of the Father", as well.
