Guy reminded me a lot of my dad. Was a big fan of his since "Airwolf." Farewell, old friend.

To post a clip of his that was brilliant is a difficult thing to do, as choosing between all of them is too great a task. RIP

His work ethic was astonishing, was still sharp as a tack when I heard him doing morning show radio interviews to hype some project or another a few months ago. Rest In Peace Ernie, you earned it.

Loved him in "Wild Bunch" and "Bad Day at Black Rock" where he could be menacing and disarming at the same time.
Here's a guy who won an oscar in 1955 and I don't think he was a leading actor in many movies after that, just a guy who loved to be in movies. We don't have many actors that could compare to him these days.
