Dennehy was a character actor, not a leading man type. Some of those character actors are the best.
Yes, he always turned in a good performance in whatever he played in. I always remember him from “First Blood” as the sheriff that provoked the ire of John Rambo…
He was also in “Cocoon” too if I recall correctly.
because they have to rely on acting chops not good looks and charisma.

He’s my third favorite actor (hunk), after Selleck and Gerald McRaney. Not super handsome, but he has a presence. DH was on a Southwest flight with him once and told him how much I liked him.
I really liked him the Jack Reed made-for-TV movie series, especially “Deadly Matrimony”.
