lame ass security Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I was sad to see that he had died, he was a really good actor. He certainly had his demons and was somewhat vilified, sometimes unfairly. A lot of people focus on what could've been instead of the many things he accomplished. But they really don't understand addiction. Anyway, he was a good one and will be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 He starred alongside some greats early doors, John Wayne and Rock Hudson in The Undefeated, Charles Bronson in the Mechanic, Robert Mitchum in Going Home, a film that I'm struggling to find a copy of for a re-watch.

dontdamnmeuyi2015 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Yeah, my mom was a fan. He was huge in the 70's. It sucks when a good actor gets older and then doesn't get anymore good roles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pretty much single handedly got Airwolf cancelled because he couldn't function on camera. His addiction just took hold and dragged him down.
