Beat me by a few.
Thanks for link.
I remember he played a baddie in some TV movie. Think it was with Katharine Ross. Or maybe she was the baddie.
Here it is:
Murder by Natural Causes

His performance in Creepshow was also Oscar worthy.
Holbrook in Magnum Force:

Thanks. I have not seen that one.
“All the Great Authors are Dead, Shakepears dead, Chaucers dead, and I’m not feeling to well meself.”
My favorite Hal Holbrook moment came when Dirty Harry blew him up in “Magnum Force”.
He blowed up good.
Blowed up real good.
Just posted a Magnum link moments prior to your post. Been years since I’ve seen it.
That was William Holden....
Saw him do it live twice over a 10-year period. Remarkable
Said it took three hours to apply makeup and wardrobe.
McCandless was a bit strange. He gave away all the money his parents gave him to attend college to some lefty “charity” and headed off on an adventure. There is the possibility that he sickened/killed himself by eating a plant he thought was edible and didn’t just die of straight starvation.
