Some great roles in some great films. Hope he had an amazing life
 
He was a great actor.. RIP
 
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?

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.

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.
 
One of my Favorite Actors

French Connection
 
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

Hello there. I’ve been wanting to introduce myself personally & chat with you about hunting Nilgai. Give me a call sometime…

Best,

+1 Great to deal with. I purchased custom rifle. No issues.

I saw you were looking for some Swift A-Frames for your 9.3. I just bought a bulk supply of them in the 285g. version. If Toby's are gone, I could let 100 go for $200 shipped you are interested.
Thanks,
Gary

Booked with Harold Grinde - Gana River - they sure kill some good ones - who'd you get set up with?
