No one has mentioned The Firm yet - he's very good in that movie too.

Although The French Connection is one of the greatest movies ever

His first card I believe, and an early photo from 1964.

MR. Hackman had a memorable role in the Birdcage comedy as Senator Keeley.

In drag he looked just like Maude (Bea Arthur).

RIP to a fine actor (and his wife and dog).

I like his characters though I have only seen three of his movies more than once - "Runaway Jury", "Enemy of the State" and "The Firm".

The others I enjoyed but only saw once were - "No Way Out", "Hoosiers", "The Poseiden Adventure", "Young Frankenstein" and "The Conversation".

People may not recall that he was in Bonnie and Clyde way back when.

Loved Bonnie & Clyde!!! Another great movie I watched as a kid and probably have not seen it in 40 years, but can still remember almost all of it. May need to throw that on this weekend.

Great movie that also included the film debut of another acting legend, Gene Wilder.

Yeah, the famous scene in the car with, in hindsight, an unbelievable group -- Beatty, Dunaway, Wilder and Hackman. Not to mention Estelle Parsons who won an Oscar.
