    Here's an irony "His work centered on the difficulties of and urgent need for human connection. For McNally, the most important function of theatre was to create community and bridge rifts opened between people by differences in religion, race, gender, and particularly sexual orientation."

    And he dies from a virus we are fighting by isolating people, separating them from the community and social distancing. You have to ask if his loved ones were in his room, and if they held his hand, kissed his forehead or touched him, or each other at all.

    I know McNally's husband, Tom Kirdahy. We went to high school together.

    Tom was there, and I have no doubt he was more concerned with the last remaining moments of human connection he would get to have with Terrance than he was with Covid-19...

    I should have put it differently. Was he ALLOWED in the room because that is a break in quarantine protocal, by any definition, and in other venues family members have been refused access to the dying and the dead. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/coronavirus-doctor-describes-dying-patients-21725276

    I liked him in Gorky Park the most.

    Always a presence.

    [​IMG]


    First Blood and Silverado were also good but,
    not as Great as Gorky Park.

    I remember him in a Vietnam movie, playing "immortal"
    until he got shot.
    Anyone know that movie? I can't find a reference.

    Wow, yes I always like Brian Dennehy. For me, the movie Cocoon comes to mind. LOL!

    I only find his name associated with three movies about Vietnam
    First Blood
    Fly Away Home
    Dear American - Letters Home from Vietnam

    I don't think this thread will be lying dormant in the next three weeks. We are in for more bad news in the entertainment fields.

    Just the extraverts and social butterflys of the lot. The introverted misanthrope celebrities will be fine.
