For once, the pro-Israeli Languish fails :(
Lots of anti-semites among Yanks too for ignoring the death of one of '80s icons, at the very least.. :mad:

RIP great producer of Reaganian action movies with Cannon (the almost seventh major film studio in the '80s not only Cdm knows it I hope). Hell, he even launched the ninja craze with Enter the Ninja.
Sometimes arthouse grandeur with Cassavetes' Love Streams, Godard's not so good King Lear and Konchalovsky with Maria's Lovers or the for once critical and audience success genre film Runaway train.
Chuck Norris a Cannon staple, probably mourns him as well.

Dude, he was the Golan in Golan-Globus. I'd say so. A lot of movie credits started with his name.
