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...

What have you been doing all your life, listening to Mick Jagger music and bad mouthing your country? |

This is one of my favorite movie fight scenes.
I saw this in a crowded theater when I was in high school. When Gossett nailed Gere in the crotch with that kick (3:40), pretty much every guy in the crowd doubled over and groaned. |
