His air of dignity, his sonorous voice and the knowing wit he brought to each role continue to captivate new audiences today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut Rickman's artistry wasn't confined to just his performances. Rickman's writing details the extraordinary and the ordinary in a way that is anecdotal, indiscreet, witty, gossipy and utterly candid. He takes us behind the scenes on films and plays ranging from Sense \u0026amp; Sensibility , the Harry Potter series , Private Lives , My Name I s Rachel Corrie and many more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe diaries run from 1993 to his death in 2016 and offer insight into both a public and private life. Here is Rickman the consummate professional actor, but also the friend, the traveller, the fan, the director, the enthusiast: in short, the real Alan Rickman. Here is a life fully lived, all detailed in intimate and characteristically plain-spoken prose. Reading the diaries is like listening to Rickman chatting to a close friend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMadly, Deeply also includes a foreword by Emma Thompson and a selection of Rickman's early diaries, dating from 1974 to 1982, when his acting life first began.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT-BOOK","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":54000016785776,"sku":"978-1838854805","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":54000016818544,"sku":"978-1838854805","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1009\/8543\/8576\/files\/ebook_432_9fe1dd4ac4.jpg?v=1783517676","url":"https:\/\/antbook.store\/products\/madly-deeply-the-alan-rickman-diaries-2023","provider":"ANTBOOK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
