"I couldn't come up with an obituary this week," by Henry Gibson

But at least you can once again posit that burning question, "Marshall McLuhan, what are yuh doin'?" R.I.P. Haven Hamilton, Blues Brothers Nazi, Dr. Werner Klopek, Thurston Howell, et al. (From The Hollywood Reporter.)

This is really sad to hear. I loved Henry.

RIP Mr. Gibson

Fantastic in Nashville, memorably bizarre in Magnolia, and always at the least fine in a million other roles in movies and on television.

He musta been something right, to last seventy-three years.

He was wonderfully sinister as Dr. Vermiger in Altman's The Long Goodbye. His showdown with Sterling Hayden - who towered over him, and was (or whose character was) roaring drunk, is a phenomenal bit of scenework.
