With

Great movie sports fans

With one of the greatest movie lines of all time…..sitting there on his porch, busting his daughters chops, saying, “didn’t know we were so stacked sports fans!” Classic

His role as Augustus McCrae in Lonesome Dove is, for me anyway, his most enduring. Mac Sledge in Tender Mercies is also similarly memorable.

Wow, a true legend. Just watched The Apostle for the first time a few weeks ago. RIP.

So many good performances. I show Network to my students every year. In that and The Godfather he shares the screen with so many greats, but I think he might be better than them all. He never relied on shtick like so many do.

His only appearance on The Twilight Zone, unfortunately came in season 4 with the bloated hour long episodes, but he was fantastic.
