The beloved German actor Götz George has passed away at the age of 77 after a short illness. He was well-known for his role as Inspector Horst Schimanski on the long-running German crime show "Tatort."

BERLIN: -- The versatile German television and film actor Götz George has passed away, the star's agent in Berlin announced late on Sunday.


George, age 77, died last week on June 19 after a brief illness, his agent said. The German daily newspaper "Bild" reported that George was privately buried in Hamburg, at a ceremony attended by family members.

Although he played numerous characters over the span of his 65-year acting career, millions in Germany remember George best as the brash inspector Horst Schimanski on the weekly crime drama "Tatort."

If any of you is able to understand German, I recommend, you watch "Der Totmacher", to see what a good actor he was!

It's basically a 2-man-piece, very quiet, deeply disturbing! Enjoy!
