That’s huge. No

He was so incredibly gorgeous for a long time. Good casting as Brad Pitt’s dad in the 90s.

"Icon" doesn't even begin to describe that man. My mom is a huge fan - I was exposed to his films through her. He was the Hollywood standard. RIP king.

 

[ButterTart]

I had no idea he was 89.

 

[Halli]

I don't know too much about him but know he's a massive name.

ITV1 lunch time news calling him a political 'wise head' who fleeted between Republican and Democratic but was always listened to.

Bit sad that so many of these titans of 20th century cinema are likely to go out now with the last thing on their resume being a bit part in a shitty Avengers movie.

RIP.

I always get him and Robert de Niro mixed up!

 

[Ellie]

And after I only just discovered Ordinary People too. Incredible film.

Legend

I hope someone does this for me...

 

[octophone]

His championing of independent film would be a legacy in itself. Add it to an astonishing career and, yeah, this is a really big one. RIP.

One of the biggest names of 70s cinema. True legend. RIP

Can I now admit that he was still hot in the 90s with Indecent Proposal and Up Close & Personal?

Oh he’s one I would have given it raw up until the last few years

That was the whole issue with Indecent Proposal, wasn't it? Who would have turned it down for £20 and the cab fare home, never mind $1m.
