He was a great actor.. RIP

 

[Hunting Hitman]

One of my favorites for sure RIP.

It will be interesting to see how it actually happened as details are still slim. I’m reading possible gas leak?

RIP.

I was sorry to see this in the morning newsfeed. Gene, wife and dog all dead together. There is obviously more to the story. He was a talented actor and I enjoyed his movies.

My money is on carbon monoxide poisoning but the truth will be interesting-he even went out with an intriguing story

Hoosiers is in my top 10 all time faves. If the story isn't true, it ought to be. Few things better than a redemption story arc, and Hackman nailed it.

My money is on CO2 poisoning but the truth will be interesting-he even went out with an intriguing story

Agreed, certainly the most likely explanation.

So many good movies...Unforgiven....Enemy of the State (awesome paranoid character)...Absolute Power (he and Clint Eastwood were always a good pairing)...The Chamber...Crimson Tide...Get Shorty...The Firm...The Quick and the Dead...Mississippi Burning...Runaway Jury...the list goes on.

95 years old. I had no idea. He aged well. We should all be so lucky. At least it sounds like he went peacefully.

Don't leave out BAT 21...

Could be a murder/Suicide? Detectives found no sign of gas leaks or carbon monoxide, but found her in the bathroom with pills scattered around
Toxicology reports will determine much.

He deserved a better ending
