Only a few people have had the impact on the film industry as he.
Legend
David Sanborn, aged 78. He played multiple instruments but was best known as an alto saxophonist. R.I.P.
That’s a bummer, he was one of my favorite sax players back in the 70s. Hell, I still hear Butterfat all the time as bumper music, in grocery stores, coffee shops, elevators…
Saw him at the Blue Note in Fresno. Hiroshima opened for him. It was a top 5 concert event for me.
Alice Munro. Wow.
This is an erudite group.
Dabney Coleman, 92.
Man he was a fixture in the 70s and 80s.
Great as the boss in 9 to 5.
I still giggle at the thought of him setting up items on his desk to fall off so he could sneak a peak at Dolly Parton’s cleavage.
He was also in Boardwalk Empire iirc.
RIP, Jack Flack.
I will throw down with anyone who argues that Jerry Caesar in Dragnet was not his finest role ever.
I will not abide this Cloak and Dagger deletion.
Found out Dabney Coleman was born in Austin and attended UT (also went to VMI; not sure where he graduated).
Filmed in San Antonio. I’ll allow it.
I remember reading something about him being from Texas, but didn’t know about UT. #hookem
He was a goddamn good-looking man!
Watched a clip of him on Letterman from the early ‘80s, right before War Games was released and Dave mentioned he was from Texas.
I had forgotten how funny Dabney Coleman was, because he had Dave laughing.
I will abide Cloak and Dagger, 9 to 5, and War Games.
Godspeed, Dabney.
The President of Iran, seemingly. Helicopter crash.
