ANTHONY HOPKINS - HOPKINS STILL HAUNTED BY FILM SET DEATH

SIR ANTHONY HOPKINS is still haunted by the death of a crewmember on the set of a film he shot in Greece 27 years ago. The Silence of The Lambs star recalls the man literally dropping dead in front of him - and he hasn't been able to get the horrible memory of moments following the tragedy out of his head ever since. He says, "I was filming Peter and Paul in Greece years ago and one of the members of the crew, a Greek guy called George, had a heart attack and he died on the set in front of us. "I saw him collapse and the doctors took him and we all stood by and somebody came back in tears and said, `He's dead.' "I remember that like it was yesterday - and it was in 1980. We finished for the day and there were big strong men weeping. "I felt terrible because I had talked to George that very morning. It was so strange and I'll never forget it... I went to the funeral in Greece and I remember strong guys weeping in the corner. It did stay with me."
