Tried to get Clint Eastwood smoked in Magnum Force

"I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that" - HAL.

Really wanted him to get that academy award for into the wild.
RIP

Dude was great in The Firm, The Sorpanos and The West Wing later in life too. One of those guys who’s been an old man my entire life.

 

[n...not crazy]

I watched Creepshow 100 times as a kid. Love this guy.

"Just tell him to call you Billy"

But in my older years he made me cry in Into the Wild.

My favorite Holbrook performance is in the 1976 Canadian thriller RITUALS. Coincidently, it was finally released on Blu-ray about two weeks ago & I got a copy right away. I've watched it once already but I'll have to be sure to do so again in honor of Hal's passing. Has anyone else seen RITUALS? If not, I highly recommend it.

Damn. Canadian Deliverence!

Exactly! Be sure to check it out when you get a chance. It's definitely worth it. I actually prefer it to DELIVERANCE.

He had a cameo in the Sopranos. He was great in it.

RIP

Oh man. RIP. Another legend. Damn you 2021.

Im a big fan of the movie Wall Street and Holbrook steals the thing every time he’s in it.

That was weird convinced he already died then realised I was thinking of John Spencer!

I'm fairly certain we've mourned Holbrook twice now already and dead ass positive we'll do it again in a couple years.
