Paying Tribute to Victor Spinetti

[Annalina Lennon McCartney]

He's been in our favorite Beatles films... we've all been too familiarized with Victor in A Hard Day's Night, Help!, and Magical Mystery Tour. Let's pay tribute to him in this thread.

Post your favorite quotes, photos, and trivia facts.

George was even quoted as to saying, "You've got to be in all our films ... if you're not in them me Mum won't come and see them — because she fancies you."

What did you think of him as the T.V. Director guy in A Hard Day's Night?

From Yoko:

 

Said Paul, "Victor was a fine man, a great pal and a fantastic actor and someone I am proud to have known for many years,".

 

A statement from Ringo: "It was a pleasure the time we worked with Victor. He was a good man and I send my condolences to his family. Peace and love, Ringo,".

I was lucky enough to meet him a couple of times at Beatlefest in 2007. He was not very friendly at all, unfortunately, but he probably wasn't feeling very well or something.
