RIP Uncle Hub
While not his best production, I immediately thought of the Lonesome Dove miniseries. RIP Gus McCrae.
I also forgot he was in To Kill a Mockingbird, but last saw it in high school almost 30 years ago
Unlikely.
Not sure this is unusual or not, never counted for any other actor - but I have read ten books for Duvall movies that they are based on and I have seen.
There is a version of A Handmaidâs Tale - which I need to both watch and read.

I found these 3 paragraphs from the Washington Post article a bit interesting. While I understand the first being included, not sure why they would include the following 2.
In addition to his wife, survivors include their five children, Santita, Jesse Jr., Jonathan, Yusef and Jacqueline; his daughter Ashley; and a number of grandchildren.
His son Jesse Jackson Jr., a Democrat, represented an Illinois district in Congress from 1995 to 2012, and he served two years in prison after pleading guilty in 2013 to spending $750,000 in campaign money on personal items. (âMy heart burns,â Rev. Jackson told the AP in 2012. âAs I always say to my children, champions have to play with pain. You canât just walk off the field because youâre hurt.â) He announced in October that he was running for his former congressional seat, launching his campaign on the Rev. Jacksonâs 84th birthday.
Rev. Jacksonâs son Jonathan has served in Congress since 2023, when he took over the Illinois seat held by 30-year incumbent Bobby L. Rush.
Famous person dies, two of his children are âfamousâ (wiki-able) in their own right, in their fatherâs field, so that is mentioned as well. Makes sense to me.
Did they need to include the indictment? That is debatable.
It seemed to be a way to take a shot at Jeese Jackson through his son without taking a shot at the man himself in an RIP type article.
In any event RIP. I didnât always agree with Jackson but he seemed like a decent enough human being who did a lot for the civil rights movement.
RIP Jesse. Saw him speak at my college campus during his presidential campaign in 1988.
I havenât seen mention of his racial-related gaffe in the 1984 run.
NYT brought this out yesterday (gift article) -
I did, on TV News.
The rest of the article wasnât totally positive toward him. Did a âwarts and allâ article. Here is a gift link.
I couldnât find the full clip, but here he is on SNL. Among the cuts, it started with something like âTonight Iâm not going to read from the Book Of Samuel âŚâ

Suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound. For all the money being made off college and pro football, youâd think a little could be spared for player mental health and helping players transition to a fulfilling post-football life.
Could also be a case of TBI. It can happen at that age.

That would be expensive since an ultramajority would need it. Because it is fuh-baw.
