That one hurts. Clearly a great actor, but more importantly, he was reportedly a very kind and good person.

  • If this is supposed to be referring to me, my comment had nothing to do with the person. You had a poster LOL someone who was murdered over an opinion. That's scummy.

  • Parents confirmed he took his own life. We never know what difficulties the people in our lives are dealing with. Famous of not, life can be tough.    Call 988 to reach the National Suicide

When I think of baseball I think of Pete Rose and Reggie Jackson. When they played, baseball was fun and exciting both. Then came analytics. Rest in peace to Pete Rose. The fact he's not in the Hall of Fame is par for the course in baseball.

There are only a couple of politicians in my lifetime that I truly believed were selfless and put their constituents first. He was a statesman and walked the talk. I wish we had more leaders with his integrity.

Gene Hackman who won 2 Academy Awards and one of my all time favorite actors has passed at age 95. His wife and dog were also found dead in their home, authorities say no foul play so maybe a gas leak or even suicide.    
IMHO The French Connection is the best cop movie ever with Bullitt a close second. “You still picking your feet in Poughkeepsie?”

Sorry to hear about the death of Gene Hackman. One of the all time greats. I am curious about the circumstances surrounding the deaths of Mr. Hackman and his wife.

I spent a lot of time in Santa Fe when I was working on my masters. I heard more than a couple people talk about what a nice couple they were.

The Gene Hackman thing is so sad. He has three kids, from what I’ve read. How do you have a 95-year-old parent with Alzheimer’s, and you don’t check in on them regularly. Yikes.

They were apparently very reclusive and they liked their privacy but I can’t believe they didn’t have paid caretakers/assistants.  Hackman’s wife would take care of him and her dogs.  She would pick up special dog food from the vet.  Just seems a bit ridiculous when your net worth is $83.8 million.
