Robbed.
I always enjoyed his work, too. He seemed to enhance any film he was in
You’re right that he didn’t alienate his audience with liberal crap talking.
Gene Hackman has three children with his first wife, Faye Maltese. He was married to her from 1956 to 1986. Their names are Christopher, Elizabeth, and Leslie. So his kids are probably in their late 60s or early 70s.
It’s a shame the kids were not calling dad regularly or be concerned that they had not heard from Dad.
My comment was because there have been a number of instances when a cop has killed a family dog for no apparent reason, which have been commented on here on FR.
Because it got into the pills?
The Dead Dog was in the Kennel?? Even in death, Hackman is full of drama
Best actor in the history of movies.
