John MacKenzie, director of "The Long Good Friday", "Made" and other things. Obit to come.
I heard it on BBC radio news, but there isn't a link anywhere. Strange.

That's terrible. Is there a better location for an obituary available yet?

Not that I can find besides other local news sites picking up TMZ's story. I'm sure a proper obit will surface soon, I'll post it if/when I come across it.
EDIT:
AV Club obit.
