What a creepy old guy.

He was great! One of those actors that you probably didn't know his name but immediately recognized when you saw him. We just watched "Amadeus" last night.

"Open the door, Signore! Please! Be good now! We've brought you something special. Something you're going to love."

amadeus is such an awesome movie

Also One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and a few appearances on the t.v. show Taxi.

He was always good.

I'm sad he's dead. He's been good in everything I've seen him in.

He was also in a really good X-files episode - the one with the carny-freak town. He was the guy with the little "cojoined" twin that wasn't that cojoined...

In his prime...

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, a must see classic staring Jack Nicholson, directed by Milos Forman, and produced by Michael Douglas (in his first industry role).

Sad news. That's two fairly known names in the past week (along with John Spencer) who have died from smoking related deaths in their 50's. Will the kids learn? Probably not.

I enjoyed seeing him as Wednesday in Snow White: Fairest of Them All.

He was quite the chef too. Saw him on some cooking shows a few times. Quite a striking difference from his RL personalty and the characters he portrayed. Seemed like a real nice gentle man.
