Journeyman actor George Kennedy passes away at 91. Claim to fame was the movie Cool Hand Luke. Had numerous movies and tv shows. The Naked Gun series rings a bell. Had guest appearances as well. He was one of these actors who had a flare I'd guess you call it. Not a pretty boy actor but you always enjoyed watching him work, he was from a different era. For some reason the movie the Eiger Sanction sticks out in my mind.

RIP

Damn.

I always enjoyed George. I think he may have been in a few of the older western TV series as well. Cool Hand Luke - he was great. RIP, George. And thank you.
 

RIP George. I always liked his roles in most of his films, but I gotta admit that I almost hurled watching him
choke down all of those hard-boiled eggs.
 
I liked George when he played in the "Airport" movies. When he was rocking the plane back and forth to get it out of the snowdrift, I used to think "what a crock." Hollywood had a good imagination.

RIP, George!
