3. He had a nice small role in "The Last Stand"...

...which I believe is the first movie Arnie the Governator made after finishing up as Governor of CA.

He played a farm owner who runs afoul of bad guy Peter "I Need Unguent" Stormare from "Fargo."

He also had another amusing distinction...he was the host for SNL the night The Replacements were banned for life.



Goes without saying that he was one of those actors who made every movie or TV show he appeared in better, just by being there.

RIP.
