Wants to join the "cereal box" dating service. I've dated enough flakes and nuts...all I want is the prize now.

He was one of my favorite character actors.

 

Had no idea, until now, Juliette Lewis is his daughter.

Great character actor. Like you, I did not know his daughter is Juliette, but now that I do I can see the resemblance.

Yeah, that was a revelation to me as well about his daughter, but as soon as I read it it was crystal clear.

 

Eastwood is one of those guys who is very loyal to his circle.  He kept this guy and quite a few others working over the years. 

 

RIP.

Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Makes me want to watch some Philo Beddoe movies.


RIP Mr. Lewis.

I found this short film about him on youtube.  It's about 30 minutes long, and audio isn't great.  (The owner of the work uploaded the film himself, so no copyright issue.)

I hadn't realized he'd been ill prior to his death.  Sad to see him like that.

 

I also had no idea he was a performance storyteller.  You can find clips of Celestial Navigation on youtube as well.  He was an amazing storyteller, another thing I didn't know about him until now.
