We are so much poorer for losing him.
You may not have not known his name, but you sure as hell will recognize his face. Arguably the ultimate character-actor has been taken away.
"Wild at Heart"
"Alien"
"Twin Peaks"
"Escape From New York"
"Pretty in Pink"
"The Straight Story"
"She's so Lovely"
Countless parts in TV Westerns from "Gunsmoke" to "Rawhide" to "Bonanza."
He even played Saul of Tarsus in "The Last Temptation of Christ."
...and the list could continue.
