*A gentleman whose name is Christopher Plummer died today. He was what I call a friend. What is the definition of a friend? Somebody you know intimately whose every breath and every thought that is so much like yours or can a friend be someone whose life is intertwined near and afar with great gaps of time between meetings? That was the kind of friend Chris Plummer was to me. I think the final picture of our friendship was in a documentary I was making in which I interviewed him at a theatre that we both played at – the Statford [sic] Ontario Festival. We spent the afternoon laughing and rejoicing in our mutual experiences. That afternoon defined my friendship with Chris. I am so sad to lose him. My best, Bill

*...One of the most distinguished actors that lived, anywhere. He was more familiar in the theatre in London I believe, but, as a result of his films and on television, he was- the American public was well-acquainted with him. But he was a formidable talent in many ways. He spoke- You know, we used to joke about John Gielgud, "and the way they would do Shakespeare" [impersonating Gielgud], and Chris could do that, without putting it on like I do. He could do that in reality, and at the same time, he could play comedy extraordinarily well because he was very funny. He was a magnificent actor, and the parts that I knew of Chris Plummer were admirable, and I have a sense- I haven't seen him in many years- but I have a sense of loss. And it's one of those people, and I urge your audience to partake of my experience, which is, don't let time go by. If you have an old friend or somebody who is passing you by and you wish to know them a little bit better, take advantage of the moment, because you never know when they'll pass on or you'll pass on. Take advantage of the moment. And I wish I had, more often with Chris.
