LOS ANGELES (AP) — Alan Arkin, the wry character actor who demonstrated his versatility in everything from farcical comedy to chilling drama as he received four Academy Award nominations and won an Oscar in 2007 for “Little Miss Sunshine,” has died. He was 89.
His sons Adam, Matthew and Anthony confirmed their father’s death through the actor’s publicist on Friday. “Our father was a uniquely talented force of nature, both as an artist and a man,” they said in a statement.
Hollywood was in mourning, with Paul Reiser, Michael Rapaport and Patton Oswalt among those praising Arkin. “Such a wonderful, original voice for comedy. And on the few occasions I was in his presence, a kind and generous soul. I learned so much from watching him. And the laughs I got from his glorious work seem endless,” tweeted Jason Alexander.

RIP, Mr. Arkin, and condolences to his family and friends.
I particularly enjoyed his acting in “The Russians and Coming, The Russians are Coming!” and in The In-Laws. He was a VERY funny guy, and most funny when his characters got pissed off. I will miss him, but continue to watch his movies.
Got a kick out him in “The Russians are Coming” and “Catch-22”
Yes, crap
