Ironically, this week I re-screened one of my favourite movies of his -- Fort Apache, The Bronx. That's one movie most won't mention in their obits, but I think it's one of his under-appreciated efforts. He's infuses much charm and wit into what could have been a very dreary story. Slap Shot is the funniest, but he wisely let the supporting cast get most of the laughs -- Hanson Brothers anyone? A truly great actor.
