I always remember a quote from Jerry Reed about working with Gene Hackman

quote:

He don't act. He just shows up and he "be's".

He was one of those actors if he was in the movie you knew it was going to be worth watching.

Remember that slacker in "PCU" who wrote a paper on the fact that a Gene Hackman or Michael Caine movie was always playing somewhere at any given moment?

Behind Enemy Lines and The Birdcage are always what I think of him in.

As a 6 year old, I was fascinated by The Poseidon Adventure.

Everything he is in is great but I really loved him in Enemy of the State.

Not quite as iconic as Little Bill but he was pulling chunks of scenery out of his teeth after this one.
