Terribly sad news to start off the new year today, with the announcement that the great British actor Pete Postlethwaite passed away on Sunday, at the age of 64. He'd been working through treatment for cancer in the last year, and died peacefully in hospital in Shropshire on Sunday, according to a friend (via The Daily Telegraph).
