The Great Santini!

 

[OzDigger]

A truly great actor, convincing in all his roles, but my favs are the Godfather movies and Open Range.

Hadn't heard this. One of the greats. RIP

Def one of the greats, loved nearly all of his movies. Still loved Days of Thunder and of course The Godfather. So many to choose from

Second Hand Lions great flic.Any one else remember him as a German Army Medic on "Combat"?

He was also great in “The Judge” and “Gone in 60 Seconds”.

Don’t forget his role as Boo Radley or his Academy Award winning performance or Lonesome Dove.

And the taxi driver in Bullet.

Always good in every role he played but seemed especially suited for cowboy flicks ... True Grit, Lonesome Dove, Open Range, Broken Trail, he always seemed to have a just-right western accent and cowboy bow leggedness.

He was gold in Jack Reacher too, stole the movie.

I had forgotten that he was in George Lucas' "THX1138", too. That had grown out of a film school project Lucas did in grad school.

Prost!

And I just thought of a comedic turn Bobby D did, on SNL back in 1998. Garth Brooks was the guest host and they appeared in a sketch of a game show called, "Who's More Grizzled?". Norm MacDonald played the host.

 

[Terp152]

Anyone seen Tender Mercies for which he won Academy Award back when that meant something? Duval learned to sing for the movie. Didn't do well at the box office but thought it a very good movie.

 

[mikemiller1955]

everything he did was great!

An iconic role.

An iconic role.

It sure was, and I actually forgot it was him, sign of a great actor when they blend in a role so convincingly.
