What a sad ending to a great actor.
I know he made a lot of great movies, but Hoosiers was my all-time favorite.
Everyone was great including Sheb Wooley and Barbara Hersey.
Hoosiers is a great favorite of mine too. Dennis Hopper was also great in his role, and the non-actor basketball players did quite well too. Of course, Gene Hackman was the heart of the movie. I hope the explanation for their death does not add to the tragedy.
