Best Movie Ever!!

DeniseCoyle1320 I remember him bringing me to tears in the TV movie Brian’s Song!

So sad to hear of the death of James Caan. A wonderful actor who made it real. He did some complex roles yet one of my favourites is still his character Mississippi in the John Wayne movie Eldorado wearing that hat! You could tell the how stellar his career would be. R.I.P.

🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜🥲🥲🥲

One of my faves. From The Godfather on HBO every night as a kid to his hilarious turn in ELF. Wow. I think I'm getting old.😥

one of my all time favorite actors and even tho he was getting up there in age he just always seemed like he'd live forever 💔 RIP

I recently re-watched 'The Rain People' on YouTube. I hadn't seen it in decades. I'm remembering so many of his roles, & it's hard to choose a favorite; but I'm going with Brian Piccolo in 'Brian's Song.' 82 years old.

RIP.

😢

Long life..rest easy

Rest in peace and many condolences to friends and family and the world of cinema and the arts.
