1. RIP Wilford.

He was what was called “a journeyman actor.”

[Fyrefox]

2. He was everybody's crusty grandpa...

I’ll always remember his performance in John Carpenter’s “The Thing” as the first character to really understand the magnitude of what was going on.

3. I have a long memory.

Not touching that with a ten-foot pole.

8. 2 years later and you still can't comprehend what was written

keep working on it Louie, you will get it eventually. I know you can do it!

[CreekDog]

9. i only brought it up because you called me dumb

as dumb as I am, I'm not so dumb that I'd defend an AR-15 three hours after the synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh.

10. proving my point

[CreekDog]

12. why did you go after me? i didn't post this about you

i haven't interacted with you for years.

wtf? calling me dumb?

if you have a problem with me then you can tell me what that problem is. i post in the lounge about once a year and i post on du a couple times a month.

[Kali]

13. LOL

have a great day

[CreekDog]

14. don't treat me like shit and say have a nice day

i haven't interacted with you except for the gun thing which you only responded to in order to give me a hard time, like you go to the gungeon...but when i post what's the purpose of an AR-15 you suddenly show up.

it's all bullshit. whatever you issue is, i don't know you.

whatever's up your ass about me if you want me to change something, let me know. it can't be this place because i am never here.

11. Bummer!

I enjoyed him! RIP, Wilford!
I will watch all of Absence of Malice, just for the climax with Wilford as the honcho from D.C. That scene is magnificent, and he was superb!

[WiffenPoof]

16. I was about to post...

... about his performance in “Absence of Malice.” It was one of the best character actor performances I’ve seen. He nearly stole the movie in less than ten minutes.

I'm not one who hides my distaste for Sally Field.
I thought that movie was teetering because Newman couldn't save it from her over-emoting.
The Wilford enters.
True climactic performance.
