Donald Sutherland dead at 88


Born Donald McNichol Sutherland in Saint John on July 17, 1935, the actor became a magnetic screen star whose penchant for a range of unconventional characters would sustain him throughout a seldom interrupted six-decade career. He starred in acclaimed movies of the 1970s and '80s, including M*A*S*H, Klute, Invasion of the Body Snatchers and Ordinary People.


His son, actor Kiefer Sutherland, confirmed his death on Thursday. "With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived."


A long and storied career.
