Damn, he was a good one. RIP Mr. Dennehey "But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead."

He was a great villain in Gladiator. Not the Russell Crowe one, the one with Cuba Gooding jr about boxing. Mongo only pawn in game of life... | |||

Sorry to see him go. He was one of the good ones.

Always enjoyed his movies. | |||

Still finding my way |
Looking at his list of roles he sure had a great run. He'll always be the a-hole sheriff that shoulda just let that man get something to eat to me.

While he didn't always play a "bad guy", he quite often played someone you didn't particularly like.  RIP Mr. Dennehey. The man who uttered the words that got me in a lot of trouble in my life.

He is one of my favorite actors. I enjoyed the TV roles he had in Just Shoot Me, Law and Order SVU, and Hunter. I forgot his role in the movie Gladiator. He also had a unique background. Besides serving in the USMC, he also earned a football scholarship to Columbia where he earned a BA in History, along with playing rugby. | |||

Loved him in many things he played in, including more recently as the old man Dominic on The Black List. But Rambo!!! That was a classic play for him.  | |||

Speaking of Rambo, briefly... I've only ever seen it twice. Once way back then, I was younger, it had explosions and badassery, period. And once again maybe 5yrs ago, at ~45yo. Holy shit did I identify with Rambo's character. I don't think I ever thought that before, all along. Such a random thing to notice maybe, and I've never been a drifter, etc. But something must've resonated. (shrug) Hadn't thought about it since, but BD's passing and this thread jostled that random Rambo memory. Maybe I just paid real attention to the story the second time. I dunno. | |||

He just had that bad ass persona. I always liked him. RIP big boy! I think the Law and order episode he was in was one of the best, if not the very best.This message has been edited. Last edited by: old rugged cross, "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

Geez, It turns out that according to Wiki , I missed more than half of his movies, over the years. I had no Idea that he was in SO many killer , murder , killing movies.  He had a very good run between the movies and tv. Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency. Neck Ties, Hats and ammo brass, Never ,ever touch'em w/o asking first | |||

Charmingly unsophisticated |
Just the other week I watched a couple of movies with him as a grizzled detective. Seems like it was a series of TV movies, but they were fun. _______________________________ The artist formerly known as AllenInWV | |||
