Happy Birthday, Ian Holm!

Perhaps most famous as the villainous Ash in Alien, but also well-regarded for Father Vito Cornelius in The Fifth Element and the older Bilbo Baggins in the Hobbit / LOTR movies.

Also a couple turns as Napoleon (and Kubrick’s unmade Napoleon biopic), and Terry Gilliam’s Brazil, and Sir William Gull in From Hell, etc, etc.
