    Yeah he looked old in that movie 40 years ago. I guess he was just one of those guys who always looked 50+.

    Seemed like cool laid back guy. He looked 85 when he was the post master general in Sienfeld 25 years ago.

    50 years in the movie business. He was in a lot of great movies and TV shows.
    He will be missed.
    R.I.P.

    I really enjoyed watching him with Paul Newman in “absence of malice”.
