Donald Sutherland, the tall, lean and long-faced Canadian actor who became a countercultural icon with such films as “The Dirty Dozen,” “MASH,” “Klute” and “Don’t Look Now,” and who subsequently enjoyed a prolific and wide-ranging career in films including “Ordinary People,” “Without Limits” and the “Hunger Games” films, died Thursday in Miami after a long illness, CAA confirmed. He was 88.

For over a half century, the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor memorably played villains, antiheroes, romantic leads and mentor figures. His profile increased in the past decade with his supporting role as the evil President Snow in “The Hunger Games” franchise.

Disclosure...with Michael Douglass and Demi Moore was another very good flick.

[Verginius Rufus]

According to The World Almanac, he was born 7/17/1934, so he was a few weeks short of his 90th birthday if that is correct. He was born in St. John, New Brunswick.

The author overlooked "Kelly's Heroes"? Shame! Who can forget Oddball?

Great actor. RIP

I loved him pretending to be the general in The Dirty Dozen. “Where you from, son?” “Never heard of it.”

Fantastic actor. Never heard much out of him politically.

Did he ever appear w/ Kiefer on 24 I wonder? Don’t remember.

[Wilderness Conservative]

Never hearing about his politics makes me admire him even more.

“Invasion of the Body Snatchers” -- I was struggling to remember that movie! I looked up a number of things but couldn't find it. Here you go...a classic!

Huge lefty, hated PDJT, loved barry soetoro, all in on “manmade global warming”.

[wildcard_redneck]

He aged well.

That’s it, thanks for posting it.

Reminds me a little of Mick Fleetwood.

“Never hearing about his politics makes me admire him even more.”

AMEN! AMEN!

[tired&retired]

His best line was when he was a tank commander in Kelly’s Heroes;

“Cool the negative vibes, man!”

[struggle]

STOP WITH THE NEGATIVE WAVES MAN

Apparently he nearly died of spinal meningitis during the filming.
