RIP. One of America’s best film actors, who never received the acclaim he deserved. I remember his moving performance as George Wilson in The Great Gatsby.

I became a huge fan & through the years marveled at the complete characterizations he brought to the screen. Walking Dead fans got a taste of his talent, once again creating a full, rich character as Hershel Green.

If you think that was some performance, check out his work in the movie “In Cold Blood” or “The Ninth Configuration”. Anything he was ever in, he was incredible.

I hope he doesn’t ‘turn’.

You’re my new best friend. Exactly right! I would talk to Scott about THE NINTH CONFIGURATION and he semi-pretended to barely remember it. However, when I pressed it, he would relent to memories about it and correct me about certain facts. I never understood why he wouldn’t take my adulation about it. I just figured that he simply didn’t know how it affected other and, to him, it was a cheap gig. (Just my best guess...)
