Movies: The 'Sean Bean' Death Reel
Known to be one of England's most versatile actors, Sean Bean has championed a career spanning every medium for nearly 30 years, in
theatre, radio, television and movies.
In addition to being 'Boromir' in Lord of the Rings, 'Ned Stark' in TV's Game of Thrones, and 006 alongside James Bond, he has had unnumerable classic roles, yet has flown mostly under the radar for much of his career. But if you need a tough but good looking dude to glower menacingly and hurt people, either for the angels or the devils, then Sean Bean is your man.
The downside is that, well, he dies a lot. A LOT. It’s like he entered
the extra lives code and is determined to use every single last damn
one of them. And thus, the wickedly brilliant Harry Hanrahan has given
us this most precious of gifts — an entire video dedicated to nothing
but Sean Bean death scenes.
Viewers beware of course, apart from the many scenes being of violent nature here (I did mention they were death scenes right?) if you haven't seen these particular movies - SPOILER ALERT! Do you care though? I didn't, it was totally worth it. By the end, you will
have re-lived some true classics, not to mention some total
heartbreakers. So now, I present to you, courtesy of an online
video genius called Hanrahan, the 'Sean Bean Death Reel'.
If you're a complete freak like me and would like to know the list of movies (even timecodes) the pieces are taken from, here is a complete list of films listed in the video (again, spoilers):
