Literally Burton died just as he thought he was going to make an acting comeback, after being in Wagner and 1984.

>"When I was 27, I did 'Hamlet.' Several years later, I did it again and was able to discover all sorts of insights. I may be a late developer, just coming into my own. I've been dicing around in the acting profession for years, and it's now that I think I'm at my best as an actor. In almost every artistic career, at a certain period, there's an enormous burst of energy. Take Shakespeare - his early plays are relatively indifferent, the middle comedies begin to show his genius and then there's that tremendous burst of energy that produces the five great tragedies. Energy is so important to an actor. At first, my acting was physical. I charged into parts like a bull. Now I don't use as much energy. Experience comes into play. That's why I'm not frightened of aging."
