Sad.. I liked this actor and thought he was very good at his craft.
JUST ANOTHER REMINDER THAT WE ARE ALL GOING TO ONE DAY STEP INTO THAT LONG BLACK SHADOW..-TYR

Beau Bridges tweeted the news and called him "a dear friend, great actor, devoted father and husband."

For some reason, I thought he'd died a while back.

Great actor.

Great actor indeed! I just started 3rd season of Deadwood! :(

He did a great job in Oliver Stones Nixon playing Alexander haig. He was also in a movie called a breed apart.

The last thing I saw him in was TV series "Nashville" where he played corrupt politician. Great actor.... sad that he's gone.

I remember him from RED DAWN, and my favorite Western..."Tombstone".
