Oddball: “We make pretty colors”😜

[Verginius Rufus]

According to Wikipedia, he was born in 1935, so 88 is correct for his age at death.

Which means he was probably NOT a liberal.

He probably kept his political views to himself because he wanted to keep getting roles/jobs/working in Hollywood.

Oddball : Why don’t you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don’t you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don’t you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

His "F____ the Army" tour with Jane Fonda didn't get to your neck of the woods?

The best part of Kelly’s Heroes by far.

RIP Oddball.

He was involved with Jane Fonda for a few years, his views apparently mirrored hers to some extent. They did a rather controversial documentary film involving the Vietnam War.

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

A role was created for Donald one season. They tried to make it happen, but it didn't work out. Instead, James Cromwell played the part.

RIP Donald. Last series I saw him in was the mini-series “Lawman: Bass Reeves.” He played the character of Judge Parker who hired Bass Reeves as a deputy U.S. Marshall. Dennis Quaid was in the series too.

I have never heard of it before. I (sit) corrected. Thanks.

I will note that it was a theatrical show. Jane Fonda made real-life propaganda.

RIP

Was good in The Mechanic. That was him, wasn’t it?

“Klute” - Fonda and Sutherland. Pretty good movie, IIRC. (It’s been a while.)

[silent_jonny]

They did act together in a fairly decent western called "Forsaken" in 2015. GRIT just aired it Sunday night, on Father's Day.

He was super leftist.

With Jane Fonda in the 60’s supporting Viet Cong . Wrote for Huffington Post in the 2000’s, especially outspoken supporting Obama.

First thing I’ve always thought of about him is how leftist he is.

One of the few times a movie remake meets or exceeds the original.

“No bad vibes man …”

“No bad vibes man …”

Bad vibes:

[ifinnegan]

He went around the works with Jane Fonda trying to demean the US military and stop fighting.

He was pretty much full on communist.

Big supporter of Obama, writing in Huffington Post.

Here’s a movie he made with Jane Fonda called FTA which stands for F the Army.
