My Take

What I admire about Robbie Coltrane is how completely he weaponized warmth. A Scottish actor educated at the University of Edinburgh, he could have coasted on his imposing 185-centimeter frame, but instead he used that bulk to make characters feel like shelter — most famously as a gentle giant beloved by a whole generation of moviegoers. He was equally convincing in comedy and hard-edged drama, which is rarer than it sounds, and his 2005 OBE felt overdue. When he died in 2022, the grief was global and genuine. Few performers leave behind that specific feeling of having been everyone's favorite uncle.
