www.bbc.com Bernard Hill: Titanic and Lord of the Rings actor dies
His fellow actors from the 1997 Oscar-winning film pay tribute to a star whose career spanned decades.
Theoden's redemption arc across the second and third movie was one of the most fascinating side-stories for me, and Bernard Hill portrayed him in all stages brilliantly with range and nuance.
May he rest in peace.

Wow. Just yesterday evening I was watching the charge of the Rohirrim, and was thinking how it"s the best scene in cinema ever. Always sad for deaths. If he was aware of his own death coming, I hope he was fearless before it like his character was.
