RIP Lou Gossett Jr

One of my favorites has passed. Dude worked his ass off and was extraordinarily prolific. Too many movies and shows to even list... But for me, I'll never forget him from the Roots television mini-series, Officer and a Gentlemen, and maybe a little corny, but Diggstown. Cornier yet, his turn in Iron Eagle always stood out, and kinda made that piece of crap legit simply by his presence. See ya around big man...

Yep. One of the first things I thought of was Officer and a Gentleman. He was fantastic in that.

I know the world doesn't care for that flick as much as I do but there should be dozens of memes from that one...

Enemy Mine was the first thing that popped into my head. Not great, but decent movie with Dennis Quaid.

87. He had a good run.

I never thought of him as being that old. But:

Quote:
Gossett became friendly with James Dean and studied acting with Marilyn Monroe, Martin Landau and Steve McQueen at an offshoot of the Actors Studio taught by Frank Silvera.

In 1959, Gossett received critical acclaim for his role in the Broadway production of “A Raisin in the Sun” along with Sidney Poitier, Ruby Dee and Diana Sands.

One of the best guilty pleasure movies ever. And one of Heather Graham’s first films.

Diggstown, Enemy Mine, Iron Eagle… dude excelled at “guilty pleasure” movies.
