I've seen him in many many recent movies, kind of type cast as the grandpa. He's good at that role. I like his acting in that kind of role.
Honestly though, it was only in the last year I connected him to THAT GUY in the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Tuco, the guy that does the hanging. I had no idea they were the same guy.
One of the great ones. RIP.
