Lars Ingvar Hirdwall (5 December 1934 - 6 April 2023), was an Swedish actor. One of the country's most prolific stage and film actors, he is probably most widely recognised for his two heterogenous roles in the Martin Beck universe; as the eponymous killer in Bo Widerberg's The Man on the Roof in 1976, and the recurrent role as "The Neighbor" in the mass produced film series, a rambunctious raconteur who frequently interacts with the titular police investigator for the purpose of comic relief. He also had a role in the film adaption of Stieg Larsson's Millennium series as the lawyer Dirch Frode, and starred as various colourful characters in Lars Molin's comedies.
