gmonahan Posted March 13, 2022 Report Posted March 13, 2022 Sorry to read today that Oscar-winning actor William Hurt died at age 71. He was always interesting to watch and gave some great performances. RIP. gregmo Quote
Dan Gould Posted March 14, 2022 Report Posted March 14, 2022 This is a bit of shock and 71 is certainly too young. My favorite Hurt movies/performances are Body Heat and especially The Big Chill. I know the latter gets mixed reviews but it came out as I was developing strong bonds with a group of people at college, and so the themes were very real to me at the time. I don't know how many times I've repeated "I could have, I chose not to. I'm not hung up on this completion thing." Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 14, 2022 Report Posted March 14, 2022 Wow, that sucks! Sad news. I thought he was excellent. Quote
Ken Dryden Posted March 14, 2022 Report Posted March 14, 2022 He had some great performances, but The Big Chill was not one of them. I couldn't sit through it again at gunpoint, due to the dumb script. RIP. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 14, 2022 Report Posted March 14, 2022 I've since learned about some nefarious behavior around his ex-partner Marlee Matlin that leaves quite a bad taste in my mouth. Cocaine is a hell of a drug... Quote

GA Russell Posted March 14, 2022 Report Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) I saw Broadcast News. His character was very dislikeable. He was so good, I disliked him ever since! RIP. Edited March 14, 2022 by GA Russell Quote
