He was versatile for sure.

Deliverance, All the President's Men, Network, Superman, Back to School, Rudy and Toy Story 3.

Nice post! He was a first class guy.
Deliverance, still a classic with great actors including Ned, Burt Reynold and John Voight. The dueling banjo's..wow,
Thanks for the post, brings back a few memories
