He hasn't looked particularly healthy for decades; I wonder what the cause will be.

Requiescat in Pace.

I'd guess heart disease. He always looked like his head was going to explode. High blood pressure, for sure. It didn't look as if he took very good care of himself. Just my opinion.

that Chantix went ahead with airing the commercial - he was hardly the ideal celebrity spokesman for a smoking cessation product - he did not look well at all.

Great movie. The only thing wrong with the movie was Joe Jackson batted left.

It was a fun movie with Melanie Griffith, Jeff Daniels, and Ray. All 3 early in their careers.

An understated supporting role outside of his normal type.
