Sad news. Didn’t know he was suffering from ALS. He made a great transition from playwright to movie actor. I particularly liked Days of Heaven and The Right Stuff. He was also good in Black Hawk Down. RIP.
He was also the attorney who was blown up in the car in the Pelican Brief and was Julian Robert professor and lover.
Also just a few days ago, John Heard who played a lawyer for the FBI passed away.
Two fine actors have passed.
