RIP Anthony Head: Our 10 favorite moments of Buffy's Giles
摘要
演员安东尼·海德去世，享年72岁。他最广为人知的角色是《吸血鬼猎人巴菲》中的守望者/父亲形象鲁伯特·吉尔斯。海德在《梅林传奇》《小不列颠》《神秘博士》和《足球教练》中均有出色表现，但吉尔斯始终是其标志性角色。尽管以吉尔斯为中心的剧集不多，但海德的真正才华在于与同剧演员默契配合，在每场戏中悄然填补空白，共同编织完整的叙事。他的离去削弱了整部剧的魅力。
On Friday, news broke of the passing of actor Anthony Head at 72, best known for his portrayal of Watcher/father figure Rupert Giles on the supernatural drama Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Fans and former costars alike flooded social media with outpourings of appreciation for his talent and grief at his death.
Head certainly had a thriving career after Buffy: he played Uther Pendragon ins the series Merlin; the Prime Minister in Little Britain; a sinister headmaster in the Doctor Who episode "School Reunion"; and of course, the wealthy, entitled Rupert Mannion in Ted Lasso. But Giles remains his definitive role; there was even talk of a spinoff series, Ripper, although it was never made.
There are actually very few Giles-centric episodes, which belies the central importance of the character in the series. He definitely had some of the best, most cleverly cutting lines. But Head's true genius—and that of his character—lay in quietly filling in the gaps in every scene, working with his fellow castmates to weave a complete tapestry. Remove him, and it diminishes everything.
