Sam Neill’s death has inspired an outpouring of stories from the people who knew and worked with him, and each one has made the loss feel a little harder to process. The Jurassic Park star died July 13 at 78, leaving behind a career filled with everything from dinosaurs and submarines to intimate dramas. Still, some of the most moving remembrances have focused on the warmth and humor he brought when the cameras were not rolling. And perhaps one of the most touching memories is a video with his fellow original Jurassic Park family singing a Beatles song together.
Bryce Dallas Howard shared one such memory on Instagram, posting a video from the Jurassic World: Dominion production. In the clip, Neill sits at a piano with Laura Dern and Jeff Goldblum, the three original JP stars, as they sing the Beatles’ “Blackbird.” Goldblum plays the keys while his longtime co-stars lean in beside him, and it is difficult to imagine a sweeter image of the friendship that grew around these movies.
