God speed, Mr. Williams, just found out about your passing. May we meet some distant day. By the way, you happened to pick one of my all-time favorites.... THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER! Charles Laughton did one helluva job with his Southern Gothic masterpiece. Too bad critics didn't see it that way. Story goes Mr. Laughton was so hurt by the reviews that he vowed never to direct another film. By 1963, he was gone...

Just went back to see who was the first in the closet lol. Michael Williams was such a phenomenal actor, he will be greatly missed.. Also like you said great pick, The Night of the Hunter is a masterpiece, and coincidentally just watched in few nights ago for the first time in a long time.

Steve McQueen made Shame before he did 12 Years, which Shame also starred Michael Fassbender. I don’t think I see Fassbender in the casting role for his fourth film Widows

The second season of "Boardwalk Empire" was HBO at it's best since "The Sopranos". I know it's a bold statement, but it's true. Williams had some good picks! "Hunger" is one of the best directorial debuts ever made. Fassbender was amazing too!!!

The show revolves around the seedy, and ruthless criminals who took part in the bootlegging of alcohol in Atlantic City, New Jersey in "Prohibition" era 1920s. The show displays HBO at their absolute finest with Terence Winter (who was a lead writer for "The Sopranos") the show's co-developer and showrunner. Stars Steve Buscemi, Michael Pitt, Kelly MacDonald and Michael Shannon.
