Happy birthday to a truly fine actor. He never “overacted” (thinking of his brief —but essential — role in Slingblade.)

My favorite role that he played was of Gus in Lonesome Dove.

Played the villain Ned Pepper against Rooster Cogburn (John Wayne) in the 1969 True Grit version.

I hated his character in Great Santini!!
I would not watch him in anything for a while after that.
But Happy Birthday, RD.

What a great career. Loved him in Tender Mercies. Introduced to him in True Grit! Hit the link to watch the shootout.

That's bold talk from a one-eyed fat man.

Boo Radley, Lucky Ned Pepper, Tom Hagen, Col Kilgore, The Great Santini (Bull Meacham), and my personal favorite Gus McCrae. And those roles are just the tip of the iceberg.
