Bruno Ganz 1941-2019

Aaah. One of my favorite actors. So much empathy in his face.

My favorite Bruno Ganz performances:
The Marquise of O (Eric Rohmer)
The American Friend (Wim Wenders)
Nosferatu the Vampyre (Werner Herzog)
In the White City (Alain Tanner)
Wings of Desire (Wim Wenders)
Children of Nature (Fridrik Thor Fridriksson)
The Last Days of Chez Nous (Gillian Armstrong)
The Reader (Stephen Daldry) (not a movie that resonates with me aesthetically in its conventional awards-bait prestige style of filmmaking, but it's performed with real feeling)
The House that Jack Built (Lars von Trier)
