The passing of Gene Hackman made me interested in the actor again, and then I saw that he made a movie with Tony Scott, from Jerry Bruckheimer about surveillance. Recent fascination of mine with Michael Bay and stuff related to him, like the fact that a lot of the style of Bay came almost directly from Tony Scott. And the fact that Bay worked wit...

First, Crimson Tide is on sale in iTunes for $4.99. If you haven't seen this movie before, it's well worth the price (full or discounted). This is one of my most watched movies. The drama and energy between Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington makes this movie so good.
Second, I can't believe the movie is 30 years old (and that is why it's on sale). I remember watching this in the theaters -- oh dear, I'm old.

Robert Redford – „Die drei Tage des Condors“ (1975)
Eine Zeitreise, 50 Jahre zurück in der Geschichte des Kinos. Als Filme noch Handwerk von echten Menschen waren. Sydney Pollack war einer der größten Handwerker des 70er Jahre Kinos und Robert Redford war sein Star. Dieser Film steht exemplarisch für ihre grandiose Zusammenarbeit und eine andere Zeit. (ARD)

Santa Fe clinic says Gene Hackman’s wife called them the day after police say she died
The county sheriff’s office have confirmed that Betsy Arakawa made the phone call on 12 February disproving their initial belief that she had died a day earlier
This evening's viewing distraction: The Conversation, Coppola's fascinating muse on the Watergate era intrigues, with an amazing performance from the late Gene Hackman. (it's on the BBC iPlayer should anyone else want to watch it)
Spent time enjoying Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman (as well as John Cusack and others) in the great #movie - Runaway Jury. Well worth the time and popcorn.

Authorities are awaiting necropsy results to determine how the couple’s kelpie mix died. Starvation could have been a cause of death but ofcls are still unsure, Phipps said, noting that dogs do not get sick from hantavirus. Zinna underwent a procedure on Feb 9, which could explain why the dog was in a crate…. The couple’s other 2 dogs were found alive & had been able to go in & out of the house through an open door, authorities said.

Gene Hackman’s cause of death revealed to be heart disease with his Alzheimer’s listed as a contributing factor. .
His wife (and caregiver) Betsy Arakawa, died of hantavirus a week prior. It’s a rare airborne illness spread through rodent feces.
Hackman was alone in the house for a week with his wife’s dead body.
We may never know exactly what happened in the days leading up to her death, but this is an important reminder that caregivers often need care themselves
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s is more than a full time job, and it’s possible she didn’t get the timely medical care she needed because she was putting his needs before her own
Caregivers deserve to be recognized and supported, and they should always have respite care available
If you know someone providing full time care, reach out to them. Ask them how they’re doing or if you can support them in any way.
Even giving them an hour of rest and recovery can make a world of difference

Gene Hackman und seine Frau starben natürlichen Todes
Der mysteriöse Tod von Gene Hackman und seiner Ehefrau scheint weitgehend aufgeklärt. Ermittlern zufolge starb die Frau des US-Schauspielers an einer Viruserkrankung - Hackman lebte noch mehrere Tage weiter und erlag einer Herzkrankheit.
So he wandered about the home they'd shared for days, certainly in grief if he actually knew what was happening, lost and confused if he didn't, until he died of a broken heart.
Imagine being so isolated that if I die, my spouse and dog die too.
Imagine being so isolated that if I get sick, I die.
Community is our super power. All of these deaths could have been prevented.
....and the dog?
...and his children who were all over the media initially - none of them bothered to check on him or his wife or the dogs?
An update on the deaths of Oscar-winning actor Gene Hackman and his wife, pianist Betsy Arakawa. Arakawa died from hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, a virus often found in rodents, and Hackman died around a week later due to "hypertensive and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with Alzheimer's disease as a significant contributory factor," NBC News reports.
This is weird, until you learn Hackman had #Alzheimers.
Authorities revealed actor #GeneHackman died of heart disease & showed severe signs of Alzheimers a full week after his wife died of hantavirus.
Arakawa, 65, was found w/an open prescription bottle & pills scattered on the bathroom counter. Authorities linked her death to #hantavirus pulmonary syndrome.
Hackman, 95, was found in the mudroom. His death was tied to heart disease w/Alzheimer’s disease contributing.
