Better way to go out than a lot I can think of. Pretty badass still riding motorcycle at 71.Treat Williams, an actor who starred in well-known 80s films like Prince of the City and Dead Heat, was killed in a motorcycle accident today at the age of 71.

He was a journeyman actor who just constantly showed up in shit, most of which you probably never saw. But you probably did see him as "Critical Bill" in Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead.I liked this dude. He seemed like a down to Earth character actor and in every movie he was in he made it fun to watch even Dead Heat (Joe Piscopo ruined that one more than anything) or the straight to video sequels to The Substitute.
It makes one wonder how long Thomas Pynchon and Don DeLillo have left on Earth. Some say that there's a pipeline when one reads Cormac, those two just happen to come next.Cormac McCarthy, arguably one of America's greatest living writers... is now just one of its greatest writers. He was 89.
This one hurts me personally![]()
I just heard about it. Goddamnit. He was old as time but it still sucks. I picked up "The Passenger" last month, this will be a bittersweet read. Apart from Ellis and Steinbeck there is no other author that impressed me as much as McCarthy did (i still haven't touched the russian classics, though).Cormac McCarthy, arguably one of America's greatest living writers... is now just one of its greatest writers.

I can't think of another book adaption that comes anywhere close to No Country.No Country For Old Men was a great example of an adaptation done right.
It was obvious. Also people love him for Room With a View but he was pretty goddamn good in an utterly shitty movie called Warlock. It's worth watching just for his performance.
Arkin wasn't in M*A*S*H. You're thinking of Alan Alda, who is still kicking.Alan Arkin of M*A*S*H died at 89
I wrote that when I literally just woke up. I'm bad at names rnArkin wasn't in M*A*S*H. You're thinking of Alan Alda, who is still kicking.
