Sad day for me. #GeneHackman (Gene Hackman) #RiP The movie ‘The Sting’ is being heavily promoted, which was fantastic, however I’ll best remember him in ‘The Conversation’ https://trakt.tv/movies/the-conversation-1974
God, I hate “RIP”. Take something already performative and divorced of meaning, and turn it into a tacky acronym, a verbal tic to be belched into comment threads, standing in for an emotional expression of respect and recognition, but doing the exact opposite of that.
The 70’s? How dare you, that man was a legend for decades. Some of my favorites,
The Royal Tenenbaums, 2001
The Birdcage, 1996
Get Shorty, 1995
Crimson Tide, 1995
The Quick and the Dead, 1995
Unforgiven, 1992
Mississippi Burning, 1988
Hoosiers, 1986
It goes on but I got work to do. Take time to watch some of them, the man is a legend.
Even Runaway Jury and stuff man … he was great.
He was good in get shorty. Enemy of the State was also tops.

Oh wow. Him, his wife, and their dog all died at the same time!? Something happened there…
My guess is carbon monoxide poisoning.
That was my first thought too. It was cold (for NM) last night so …
