He had been pretty sick for awhile though right?  Still sad to lose such a wonderful actor.

RIP.  Among his other successful roles, he was a convincing Kruschev in Enemy at the Gates.

Yeah he had a disease that had been killing him for awhile.  Parkinson's or something.  I remember sometime ago he retired from acting for that reason.

How long did you look, 20 seconds?  It's like my teenage daughters, 'OMG I CAN'T FIND MY iPHONE!!!!.'

'It's 2 feet in front of you and you just sent a Snapchat 4 seconds ago!'
