The news of Gene Hackman’s death was unexpected, even though he was 95 years old. The mystery of his death will be solved in time, but it lends an air of tragedy to his passing.

I have written about some of Hackman’s films; he was one of my favorite actors. At a later time, I will post a blog about his career. For now, I will process his passing and give his career some reflection and thought.

Rest well, sir.

  1. Gene Hackman lived a very long life, but what a bizarre story surrounding his death, as well as his wife and one of their three dogs. I have to believe this cannot be a natural cause. I guess we may soon find out more what happened. My initial guess would be an some accident like airborne poisoning, though apparently carbon monoxide already was ruled out.

    I’ve always liked Gene Hackman. Of the movies I’ve watched, in which he acted, my favorite would have to be “French Connection,” which I’ve seen a few times while still living in Germany.
