Gene Hackman, Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, Richard Harris all in the movie Unforgiven. Each one can own a movie but all together made an absolute timeless classic

[keithlloyd]

I've never seen Gene Hackman give anything but eminently believable performances. A real pro.

[AngusRockford]

Gene Hackman is a joy to watch in every picture he’s ever been in. He has total control of every scene he’s in, regardless of how powerful the other performers may be. Dramatic or comedic scenes, it makes no difference. What a presence.

Gene Hackman was such a sheer badass in "Unforgiven"!

[propjoe]

Gene Hackman is a legend. I wish him continued good health.

Morgan Freeman said Hackman scared the hell out of him in Unforgiven, he’s that good.

I met gene hackman a few years ago when I was in my early 20’s and I was star struck but I did say I loved his work especially Mississippi burning and crimson tide. He was shocked someone so young knew his roles and watched his movies which is crazy when you look at his resume and what he’s produced. One of the best.

Gene Hackman can play anything as good as it can be done. Dead serious or hysterically funny, it doesn't matter.

[ElliotBrownJingles]

Gene Hackman = The Man. Props to the great Mr Costner for giving him the credit he deserves.

[eternallearner]

Never heard anyone ever say they didn't like Gene Hackman as an actor. Decades of solid quality.

[johnletter]

Don’t forget he played the blind man in Young Frankenstein. He ad-libbed the line at the end of his scene where he says “I was going to make Espresso.” That was a great three minute performance.
