      typical of this website… 2 comments… no one knows who that is and no one cares despite his Nobel prize and all other awards… this is even more sad than the fact that harold pinter died! i am Russian, and I know who he is and what he has written, unlike most of the readers of this blog, what a shame!!

      Re: Anja B. – YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT!
      NOT EVERYONE IS AN IGNORANT AMERICAN ON THIS SHITTY BLOG.
      I AM BRITISH AND VERY PROUD TO COUNT HIM AS ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED PLAYRIGHT THIS COUNTRY HAS EVER KNOWN.
      WAY TO USE SOMEONE'S DEATH TO BOAST YPUR OWN EGO.
      YOU ARE A TWAT.

    8. 8

      He was an anti-American jerk. Not sorry to see him go.



    9. 9

      Actually, it was liver cancer. Not throat cancer. Try and be a little more accurate, Perez. Thanks!

      Awww, the Pinter Pause. Thanks for posting this, Perez. It deserves more recognition that Kim Kardashian's ass could possible warrant. The theatre world has lost a legend.

      Re: Uker – actually, you are a fkn idiot. i don't see how what Anja B said is boasting her own ego. she clearly respected Mr Pinter and came out here to pay respect to him. someone she clearly admired. you on the other hand, came out here with an agenda other than paying respect. why so angry? life is way too short as i am sure Mr. Pinter would tell you.

      This was a brilliant man and one of my favorite writers. Long live the Pinter pause.
