RIP indeed.

He was a riot in The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming.

My high school theater arts instructor was a good friend of his, and on occasion had him come out to the school to talk to the students. Photos from 1967:

RIP.

I remember him from Northern Exposure. Thinking about it, the character could be on here right now...

Little Miss Sunshine is one the funniest movies I've ever seen.

That was his son, Adam.

Wow, that was fun! So well cast, too.

The ‘Heart Is a lonely hunter’ was one of the memorable movies I’ve seen.

As Martin Blank’s (John Cusack) psychiatrist in Grosse Point Blank he was hysterical.

A friend and I recently rewatched “GlenGarry Glen Ross” for the umpteenth time, and his nebishy portrayal of a real estate salesman was spot on, especially his back-and-forth with Ed Harris in the car. ALL the actors are on fire in this one. Definitely worth a watch if you’ve never seen it. Or a rewatch if you have.
