The death of a loved one can bring sadness to all who valued him as a spouse, a father, a brother, or a friend. Maximilian contributed much to society. At times like these, my hope is that you rely upon the Almighty, roll upon him your pain and your anguish; he will act for you and grant you the comfort you need.

There can be no greater pain than the loss of a loved one in death. God knows your pain and he promises to be close to the brokenhearted. So throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.

Maximilian Schell was a multi-lingual actor on a par with Maurice Chevalier and Marcello Mastroianni. An intellect without compare, producer, director,writer, sports reporter, semi professional soccer player. I saw Judgement At Nuremberg when I was a very little girl and for decades later remembered the scene where Maximilian Schell was screaming at Burt Lancaster.
They don't make them like Maximilian anymore... I will miss this great actor, humanitarian, the Jewish World News acknowledged his passing. I will be watching the reruns for a very long time.

We always watch the New Years Concert from Vienna.
This year Maximilian Schell was reading a poem, sitting in a chair.
I am glad, I saw him for one more time. He had a beautiful voice and he spoke German with a Viennese accent. Also very good in English and a great actor. I will order some of his films.

I use to call him the Swiss/Austrian Omar Sharif, since they looked a lot alike. There will never be another great foreign actor like Schell. He was one of a kind. I loved everything he acted in whether it was an award winning film, or a not so good one. He kept the picture interesting. I know Hollywood will be upset losing this fine man, hope the rest of the world will catch up and know, too! There goes another great actor whom I loved to watch, in my past. The numbers are dwindling. Quite a shame!
