Dutch director Willem van de Sande Bakhuyzen just died

Post by Alex_W »

I just learned that the Willem van de Sande Bakhuyzen has died from cancer. He's probably not really well known outside of the Netherlands, but he's made some nice films like Cloaca and Familie, which he made together with scenario writer Maria Goos.
Sadly ironic, his new movie Leef! (Live!) was programmed as the opening movie for the Dutch filmfestival that starts tomorrow.

I really like Cloaca. Sad indeed. How old did he get?
