RIP Gene Hackman

[Xenomorph]

His wife and dog were found dead as well? Is that true?

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

His wife and dog were found dead as well? Is that true?

Yes. No foul play suspected.

 

[aTotal360]

Yes. No foul play suspected.

So weird. Carbon monoxide?

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

So weird. Carbon monoxide?

That’s all they’ve said is no foul play, but that’s certainly possible.

 

[Howiefeltersnstch]

All three dead. Must be something like that. Sounds crazy.

 

[WilCoDawg]

Yes. No foul play suspected.

Yeah, they also said Covid-19 was from eating bats.***

 

[57stratdawg]

 

[BulldogBlitz]

Yes. No foul play suspected.

When have chickens ever gone on a murder spree?

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

So weird. Carbon monoxide?

Likely , but they would know that as soon as they entered the house. (I suspect)

 

[The Cooterpoot]

Hear me out: Epstein list hits today

 

[dorndawg]

It’s far from his best film but Crimson Tide is just peak Gene Hackman

 

[CochiseCowbell]

 

[horshack.sixpack]

So weird. Carbon monoxide?

My only guess.

 

[Dawg1976]

Hate to read this. Great actor.

 

[Chesusdog]

Check out Loose Cannons if you get a chance. RIP Gene, you are a legend.

First saw Hackman in The French Connection. He won an academy award for that. He was a great actor even in weak movies. I never watched him in a film that I thought he was bad.

Did y’all know his roommate, as a struggling actor was Dustin Hoffman? Can you imagine these guys running lines as struggling actors?

Hoosiers, young Frankenstein cameo, and enemy of the state, and absolute power are my favorites

Don't sleep on his Lex Luthor in the original (and still the best) Superman. He was the best part of that movie, and it was a great movie.

 

[cowbell88]

“Unforgiven”, “The Quick and the Dead”, and Runaway Jury

Miss tessmacher was the best part of that movie.

 

[Wesson Bulldog]

One of my favorites from Unforgiven
You Talking About the Queen Again?

I have never been one who paid a lot of attention to actors but I have always admired Hackman. Not only was he good at what he did he also tended to do his job and refrain from running his mouth about politics and everything else that actors seem to think we should care what they have to say.

Favorite role was Norman Dale in Hoosiers.

He is one of those actors that will still be "alive" decades from now through his work. He did it right.

Interestingly, he was on Nixon's Enemy List

#1 suspect.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

“The Quick and the Dead”,

Very under-appreciated movie. Great cast.

 

[HailStout]

Very under-appreciated movie. Great cast.

That movie may be the most Sam Raimi of all the Sam raimi movies

Bolsheviks, Sandy, Bolsheviks!!

RIP, one of the true greats.

 

[L4Dawg]

So weird. Carbon monoxide?

Either that or suicide. Except for the dog of course.

 

[Chesusdog]

No idea how it holds up, but Loose Cannons with Dan Akroyd is one of my childhood favorites of his.

 

[Delmar81]

Unforgiven. Little Bill (Gene Hackman) telling W.W. Beauchamp the story of English Bob killing Corky is one of my favorite movie scenes, ever.

 

[HailStout]

Likely , but they would know that as soon as they entered the house. (I suspect)

They were in different rooms, for whatever that is worth

 

[DerHntr]

How have none of you said Mississippi Burning?

 

[BulldogBlitz]

How have none of you said Mississippi Burning?

Because it's not a favorite performance?

 

[DerHntr]

He was absolutely incredible in that movie. Good ol boy come back home to clean up. Definitely one of my favorites of his career.
