"Forbidden Planet" is one of my favorite movies.
Nielsen did a series of 11 two-minute commercials as spokesman with gravitas in defense of Philadelphia Electric back in the 1970s which were convincingly well done, I thought, during my four year stint in Philly. Later, I was pleasantly surprised by his comedic flair.
RIP

This is very sad news.
Airplane is one of my favorite movies. Without his comedic genius, it would have been another of those amusing, but entirely forgettable movies that are so common.

“Men with Brooms” is OK if you’re a fan of Paul Gross (the guy in the middle of the photo). Leslie has a secondary role and doesn’t get to do much. It’s just a light romantic comedy.

Always made me laugh even though he always played the same character. One of his most underrated movies was Wrongfully Accused which is a parody of The Fugitive.

Men with Brooms is OK if youre a fan of Paul Gross (the guy in the middle of the photo).Paul Gross is one of a number of actors (along with Graham Greene, Gordon Pinsent, etc.) who unknowingly suffer the indignity of me saying to someone, "Hey! That's (character name) from The Red Green Show!"
Leslie Nielsen was one of the very few actors that my parents, my wife and my son all got a kick out of (as did I).
