Don Rickles gone at 90.

I'll miss this guy...we got to see him at a live dinner show years ago.
He was on everyone in the room...then he paid for everybody's tab.

Even into his 70s/80s an appearance by him at one of the nearby casinos I would see if I could go.

As for his movie appearances I have a soft spot for him and Robert Loggia in Innocent Blood after they turn into vampires.

RIP Jonathan Demme who started his career working on trash with Roger Corman (stuff like Caged heat & Crazy Mama) and made some incredible movies later on.
