Patrick Magee

Patrick Magee gives me a delicious chill. Called Beckett's favorite actor and the man who originated the Marquis de Sade in Marat/Sade on stage and screen, he carried a voice that fused menace and intelligence in a way you don't forget. Winning a Tony while collaborating repeatedly with demanding playwrights like Beckett and Pinter tells me he wasn't merely skilled, he could embody genuine danger and unease. That's a rare gift. Northern Ireland produced a character actor with real venom in him, and I happen to adore exactly that kind of unsettling presence. His shadow still lingers across film and theater.
