Just damn. One of my all time favorite actors. Loved him in Jackie Brown and as Tim Allen's father in Last Man Standing. I was very disappointed when he didn't return in the latest production, but I think I understand why now.
I live in Rochester and each time Forster returned to visit he got lots of local press. A great man - RIP.

They did mention his role in “Jackie Brown.” That’s what got him the Oscar nomination.

The Greeks settled southern Italy. Makes sense; they just sailed west and there they were!

but True Romance was also a great Tarantino movie even though he didnt direct it, its still one of my all time favorites.
Mine too. Val Kilmer as Elvis. Classic.

James Woods is another example of a genius who chose entertainment as his field.

Hello! :)
I wasn't expecting to see his character again. And he turned out to be a major part of the movie. That was a nice surprise.
Followed abruptly by the sad surprise of his passing. Dang.
