RIP Celebrity Thread - Part 4

[C. Lee]

Treat Williams was in a lot of good stuff. I don't know why he didn't become bigger. He stood out in everything he did. Loved him as Xander Drax in THE PHANTOM.

Aw, that stinks. RIP

Williams was in a lot of good stuff.

I don't know much about him beyond his work, I've seen him in many things like The Substitute sequels and Lumet's Prince of the City (underrated) I watched over a decade ago because Chris Nolan said it was a film that inspired The Dark Knight Rises. Deep Rising it was not so long ago I watched.

RIP and condolescences to family and friends at his unexpected loss.

Such an underrated character actor that played a huge part in my childhood thanks to films like The Substitute and Deep Rising and its a shame he never went on to do bigger things.

I'll definitely miss him. RIP Treat Williams

He was also in Once Upon a Time in America.....the long version of that movie is probably my all time favorite. He was a labor activist they called Johnny Clean Hands.....until he got mixed up with them. Great portrayal and great movie.

Sorry to hear about this.

Always sucks when a great writer dies.

If you’ve never seen Dead Heat, I’d highly recommend. It so cheesy and over the top but so fun. Treat and Joe Piscopo make a great team.

 

[Teelie]

Watching one of my favorite Treat Williams movies: Deep Rising.

Not his best film but nonetheless entertaining.

 

[Detective Conan]

Actress Glenda Jackson dies at 87

Glenda Jackson obituary: An actress unafraid to speak her mind


She was a hugely acclaimed actress (two Oscars, three Emmys, two BAFTAs, and a Tony), but my favourite performance of hers will always be her appearance on The Morecambe and Wise Show! RIP

 

[C. Lee]

I've only seen a couple of Jackson's movies, but am really looking forward to her last film, THE GREAT ESCAPER, with co-tar Michael Caine, that's coming out soon.
