Damn that sucks! Besides being a phenomenal actor, also a good man who put a lot of work into to good causes.

I’ll definitely have to pull up and watch some of his best stuff again.

David Lynch's Dune, where he played Gurney Halleck (with a Space Pug).

Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia, it must have progressed rapidly.

He just released his performance of all of William Shakespeare's sonnets back in April.

Zinda, his eyes red.

He had comedic talent as well.

Hah! He was absolute unhinged on American Dad as the director of the CIA.

 

[MacNav63]

He was brilliant as Karla in Tinker, Tailer, Soldier, Spy and Smiley's People without a single word of dialogue. Just a looming sinister presence in two brief scenes.
