Was rumoured to be at death's door for the last year or so. It's not a shocker.

Sad, though.

Aye, a legend.

Sad but ultimately inevitable when, a month ago, he checked out of hospital to "go home".

For me, Butch was his best role.

Butch Cassidy, The Hustler, The Sting and that one with Tom Cruise were all brilliant.

Particularly Butch. The way he makes him both hilarious and heartbroken is magnifique.

Ironically I thought his Oscar winning performance in the Color of Money was gash. But there you go.

Sadly he even acknowledged the Oscar for Color of Money was a long service award. There were much more deserving performances particularly "The Verdict". Though personal fave is still "The Sting".
