RIP Gene Hackman

 


Oscar-winning actor Gene Hackman, his wife and their dog were found dead in their New Mexico home in Santa Fe, New Mexico on February 27th. He was 95. Foul play was not suspected, but authorities did not release circumstances of their deaths and said an investigation was ongoing. Born in San Bernardino, California on January 30, 1930, the gruff-but-beloved Hackman was among the finest actors of his generation, appearing as villains, heroes and antiheroes in dozens of dramas, comedies and action films from the 1960s until his retirement in the early 2000s. He was a five-time Oscar nominee who won for “The French Connection” in 1972 and “Unforgiven” two decades later. Hackman starred in the Spaghetti western “The Hunting Party” as Brand Ruger in 1972.

  2. Opinion of the critic Carlos Boyero: he is one of my favorite actors. Always this good. He's a real guy and I suspect he's also a naughty person
