I had met him a week earlier, and during the long and focused meeting we went through a lot. His energy and wit were undiminished. He knew what was coming, and he faced it soberly. With a gentle sense of humour he created a jovial atmosphere even in terminal circumstances.

I am deeply saddened by the news, which came unexpectedly to me. A truly great movie man is gone.

Peter loved cinema so much that his cinephilia seemed to know no boundaries nor weariness. He was also a brillantly enthusiastic ambassador of Finnish arts, and a most precious friend. We shall all miss him.
Terrible news. Alhough his last e-mail, on Sept.6, sounded like a goodbye. We well miss him corially,
