He has now been released from his hatred of cans.

Yeah, he stole the show. Not bad in “Slap Shot, either. And he made the most of very little screen time in “Raising Arizona.”

RIP

Ha! First thing I thought of too. He did just quit smoking and was going through a messy divorce...

Just read that J.T. Walsh died 26 years ago at the age of 54 from a heart attack.
I had no idea..

One of those actors like Harry Dean Stanton who improved every picture they were in, no matter how small the role.

He must have appeared in over one hundred flicks the last forty years. He had a good long career. RIP.
