American actor William Hurt, known for much-loved films such as “The Big Chill” and “A History of Violence,” has died at age 71, US media reported Sunday.
Hurt built his reputation on his willingness to play quirky and unusual characters such as a Russian police officer in “Gorky Park” , a wealthy and aloof husband in Woody Allen’s “Alice” and a man seeking to build a machine that would benefit blind people in “Until the End of the World” . For his second Academy Award, Hurt played a Philadelphia mobster in David Cronenberg’s “A History of Violence.” He appears in the film for only about 10 minutes, but he made a huge impact with critics, who praised his “creepy” and “funny” character.
Hurt stayed close by, studying theology at Tufts University before enrolling at the renowned Juilliard arts school in New York.
