Actor Fred Ward, of ‘Tremors,’ ‘The Right Stuff’ Fame, Dies at 79
Fred Ward, a veteran actor who brought a gruff tenderness to tough-guy roles in such films as “The Right Stuff,” “The Player” and “Tremors,” has died. He was 79.
I saw him, and liked his work, in a lot of films. But he will forever be Earl Bassett, Graboid Hunter to me.
Yeah, corny as that franchise is, I’m a big fan.
Remo Williams
Been a while since I saw that one, but I liked his ninja training scenes.
Joel Grey had some classic lines….
-Chiun: It would be better for you to eat this can than what is inside of it. Why must everything in this country be coated with monositi… monosoti…
– Remo Williams: Monosodium glutamate. You can’t even say it.
– Chiun: I can say “rat droppings”. That does not mean I want to eat them.
—Oh – and the wrist thing…does work once in a while….
