He portrayed Fred Noonan in the TV movie Amelia Earhart: The Final Flight.

OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...

Such a shame...I liked all of his movies even the yearly "B" movies.

  

Like "Surviving the Game"!  So bad, it's good, but he was good in that, too.

  

LOL absolutely Baron...it was a good movie.

 

Anything with Rutger, Ice-T, F. Murray Abraham, Charles Dutton, and Gary Busey has got to be good!

Big fan of him in 'Blade Runner' and 'Ladyhawke' which I have both on DVD/Blu-Ray. 

 

R.I.P. 

 

A fan of those two films also, sad news.

Another guilty pleasure of the "so bad it's good" type: Hobo With a Shotgun. He was awesome in it!

Most folks will probably say they remember him best from "Blade Runner", or "Nighthawks" (his first Hollywood role), but I'll remember him also for the role in which I first saw him-as Albert Speer in the TV miniseries, "Inside the Third Reich".  I had never heard of him before.  I also enjoyed him in "Soldier of Orange" and "Fatherland".

He's gone now, "like, tears, in the rain".
