Obituary: Peter O'Toole

The Ruling Class and Night of the Generals certainly come to mind...

With his mesmeric blue eyes and mercurial manner, Peter O'Toole took the film world by storm in 1962 as the eponymous hero of David Lean's Oscar-winning epic, Lawrence of Arabia. The role seemed tailor-made for the then 30-year-old actor and thrust him into the superstar bracket, where he was to remain for the rest of his life. He was born in 1932, though where, exactly, remained a mystery, even to O'Toole himself.

Star Wars make-up maestro 'will live forever in characters he created': Artist behind Yoda, Superman and The Omen dies at 98

Stuart Freeborn, one of the greatest make-up artists in Hollywood history, has died aged 98. The 'maestro' of film make-up created the Star Wars characters Chewbacca and Jedi master Yoda, and worked on dozens of huge hits including Superman, Alice in Wonderland, Dr Strangelove and The Omen. Largely self-taught, Freeborn resisted his insurance broker father's attempts to have him follow in his footsteps and instead went on to create make-up and prosthetics for such cinematic legends as Alec Guinness and Peter Sellers. He said in a documentary last year: 'I didn't want to spend my life in an office. I felt I was different.'
