RIP Frank Kelly aka Father Jack Hackett Some of the best lines in comedy... 'Well that would be an ecumenical matter' 'Feck off cup' 'Nuns... reverse reverse' 'Arsebiscuits'
One of the best comedy characters ever from one of the best comedies ever written. R.I.P. father Jack and thanks for the laughs
George Kennedy. RIP. Good innings - 91. Cool Hand Luke, Airplane, Naked Gun some of my favourite films.
He's in a most wonderful, absolutely awful 80's horror film called 'Uninvited' about an escaped mutant cat with a monster inside it. On a yacht. I've got it on video somewhere. RIP George.
Cool Hand Luke: excellent movie. And we all know what Dragline is looking at in this still. One of the sexiest scenes ever on the big screen.
You missed out tv series Dallas He was great in that as Carter McKay. imo, George Kennedy was best as Joe Patroni (the airline trouble shooter) in the "Airport" disaster films(4 of them) - (Not the comedy spoof ones). Indeed. R.I.P. George Kennedy. A true Hollywood heavy weight.
I apologise for missing Dallas off a list of three of my favourite films that George Kennedy had starred in despite having never seen it & it not actually been a film. What was I thinking?
Got an Oscar for Cool Hand Luke. Brilliant actor. RIP There'll be some world shaking tonight. He was smiling... That's right. You know, that, that Luke smile of his. He had it on his face right to the very end. Hell, if they didn't know it 'fore, they could tell right then that they weren't a-gonna beat him. That old Luke smile. Oh, Luke. He was some boy. Cool Hand Luke. Hell, he's a natural-born world-shaker.
