I will remember him most for his role on Game of Thrones
The world is expressing there condolences for this great man:
Max von Sydow has died to us but, according to him, he has not ceased exist. Apparently Ingmar Bergman told von Sydow that he would communicate to him from beyond the grave. Mr. von Sydow says it was a promise Bergman kept.
