RIP Madsen, a guy who held your attention while onscreen with Lawrence Tierney. One of the few of his generation who excuded a genuine danger, like a 1990s Robert Mitchum. "That woman deserves her revenge... and we deserve to die." in Kill Bill is a perfect line delivery.

A friend of mine worked with him awhile back and said he was as cool as his on screen persona.

I haven't seen him in much lately. Likely "Once Upon a Time" was the last one I saw him in. Great actor and a critical part in a lot of my favorite movies.

A friend once observed after seeing him in Man With a Gun, Madsen seemed to always be holding a gun in movie posters.

I rewatched Reservoir Dogs for the first time in a lot of years and it's still an incredible showcase for Madsen. I can't think of anything I've seen him in where he wasn't great - even if the movie itself was dogshit (which didn't happen often I don't think, Madsen usually seemed to find himself in pretty good stuff). RIP to an actor who was in a ton of stuff I fell in love with during my youthful days.

Stunning that someone who had a fairly decent career had no health insurance. Appalling that that can happen.

Lost all his possessions except his 05 world series ring in the Palisades fires too, apparently. Brutal.

I don't know why I didn't know this, especially with all of the useless crap that is in my head, but I never realized that he and Virginia Madsen were siblings. He was a great character actor.

Actor Julian McMahon also passed away. https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertai ... 478171007/

Weird, I didn't know the Virginia Madsen thing either.

Oof cancer for McMahon. Never was much of a fan, he was very aesthetically offputting for me, but he was everywhere in the early 00s.
