Yes, I’d just seen that. Strange that I was watching Hobo With A Shotgun just this past
Monday night.

Dammit, he was one of my favorite actors. No one else could convey both menace and invite pity better than he did as Roy Batty.

I got him confused with this guy.

He just went to the Nexus.

Even in a movie as silly (but enjoyable!) as Ladyhawke he was able to portray a real sense of melancholy.

Watch S o l d i e r o f O r a n g e if you haven’t done so already. Excellent film (and based on real events and characters).

He actually died 5 days ago. Interesting that it’s only now making the news.

No!
A staple of B movies.

I can only place him in Batman begins, but just barely. Time to re-watch

Hobo with a Shotgun is truly a gem

Seent decades ago, along with Spetters. Both excellent films, but the majority of Paul Verhoe ven films are.
...Paul is probably having a sad day, too.

Damn, really?! Maybe he just wanted his privacy?

I really, really don’t do movies. Don’t watch them, don’t go to them, don’t follow them.

I have a coworker that’s the same way with films.
I don't completely understand, but I do respect your viewpoint.

I mean, I have seen and enjoyed movies...I just seem to prefer video games or old.tv shows?
I am one boring 27 year old

He was also in The 10th Kingdom, which I rewatched a couple months back; which is entertaining but I hesitate to recommend it to people because it’s so long and so weird.

According to Fandom, he did voice work in Observer and Kingdom Hearts III

Haven’t seen
Spetters.
I may have seen most of T u r k i s h D e l i g h t also by Verhoeven, a very long time ago, but found it so depressing I turned off the set well before the end.
A friend of mine
m
a
y
have met Hauer a long, long time ago. Among the c
u
r
i
o
u
s
circle of friends of his first wife was Monique van de Ven
–
she was not famous yet
–
but he certainly did not remember Hauer as such.
The Netherlands was a pretty interesting place then.

IMDB and Wiki both report his death as July 19.
