Sadly the best name in Hollywood has passed :(

https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2019/jul/10/rip-torn-cult-actor-dies-aged-88

A hard drinking old school actor who fell foul of his demons on many occasions, including allegedly pulling a knife on Dennis Hopper before being dumped from Easy Rider filming and trying to rob a bank whilst drunk in 2010 :D, but always picked himself up and fought on.

In recent years he was superb as Zed in Men in Black and as Patches O'Houlihan in Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story

RIP Rip, there aren't many of the old school left now :(
