I think of that monologue he performed at the end of Coming Home and wonder, what happened to the guy who was able to portray the humanity and sensitivity of that character. Guess it got pummelled out of him in the Champ.

2. I remember the press he did back in the 70's tho
And even the actor - it's just so hard to imagine all the things he said about his character and the war, he could support the candidate that supports another mistake.

3. As a human being,
he appears to be a total, publicity-seeking dick.

No wonder his daughter, someone I think is pretty terrific, won't have anything to do with him.
