When a celebrity dies,
I tend to mentally tally how many anecdotes of them having behaved kindly in private pop up.
I suspect Sean will be more Cilla Black than George Michael.

He didn't really seem very interested in much except his bank balance
Like Cilla really
Still think Last Crusade was the best film of the 80s like

I'd guess that might be something to do with early poverty.

How true.
There was no need for him to go method in his uncredited cameo in Temple of Doom as third sad and hungry kid from the left.

You know what I mean, ingrained early experiences and so on.

90 year old scotsman had questionable attitudes towards women
I assume most people have flaws, but I find the ones who have the biggest are the most sanctimonious and most blind to their own. He had a 40 year relationship with a Moroccan artist who still speaks quite lovingly of him, which is pretty good going to sustain that. Maybe he evolved his attitude after his first marriage, people do. Or maybe he found a woman who didn't nag him.

Fucking hell what a heart-warming ending
I'm guessing they'll gloss over his search for a woman he doesn't have to batter in the biopic.

who cares about some shitty biopic anyway?
or the moral judgement of an anonymous keyboard troll or virtue signalling millennial. He did stuff, a lot of it interesting, some of it bad, and now he's dead. If somebody has something about him I didn't know I'm interested in that, but much less so in some hypocrite's manichean pronouncement on him

you can have whatever opinion you like, benito
for what's it's worth my comment wasn't directed at you personally, but the millions of judgey people on the internet who seem to take delight in pronouncing "this famous person is bad". Yet I constantly meet mean, flawed people. people who push in front you at the supermarket. I just think that such condemnation is more about the feeling of superiority it gives people, and less about caring or changing things. I've developed training for nurses and paramedics on family violence (re: domestic violence, quite a few of the charities and refuges are stuck with the old name). I do it because I'm paid to do it, though you do learn a lot when you put these things together. I just don't think internet sanctimony helps anything, and it's the laziest option if they actually want to.

I'll do as I please, and the fact that it upsets you is simply a nice bonus

About the same as a Cilla, then.
Better than a Patrick Moore.
