Great culture can save lives. Literally.

Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Several newspapers are mourning the death of "Shakespeare in Love screenwriter Tom Stoppard" which, while technically true, is very much on the level of "Thomas The Tank Engine narrator Ringo Starr".

Tom Stoppard, Oscar- and Tony-...

One of my favourite playwrights. I loved everything from his silly radio plays to Hapgood, about human nature and quantum mechanics. And of course Shakespeare in Love, one of the last times a comedy won the Best Picture Oscar.

As a theater kid who was not yet a film nerd, all I knew was that I *must* see Shakespeare in Love (as my theater teacher insisted) and I spent the whole time with a stupid grin on my face from how much I was enjoying and only when this credit appeared did I realize (and say aloud) "ah, that's why."

RIP Tom Stoppard. He left a fantastic body of work - playful with language, and serious about ideas of democracy, liberalism and freedom.

Farewell Tom Stoppard. I know I'm supposed to consider "Arcadia" your best work, but there's no improving on Brazil's taut first hour & the office dialogue in particular.

Tom Stoppard (with scenes from the Terry Gilliam film "Brazil" whose screenplay was coauthored by Stoppard) - RIP
