Very sorry to hear about the passing of William Hurt. He was a fine actor, an Academy Award winner. He also did a classic reading of my story “Low Men in Yellow Coats,” from HEARTS IN ATLANTIS. I loved hitchhiking on his immense talent.

On ‘Robin Hood,’ I was aware of his reputation for asking character-driven questions, so I compiled a file on the life of William Marshall. He looked for me when he got to the set. I handed him the stack. I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen a bigger smile.”

William Hurt has passed. On Robin Hood, I was aware of his reputation for asking character based questions, so I had compiled a file on the life of William Marshall. He sought me out when he arrived on set. I handed him the stack. Not sure if I’ve ever seen a bigger smile. R.I.P.

God Bless William Hurt.
There’s no way to overstate how he dominated film acting in the 1980s. I had pics of him all over my wall as a teenager.
He got an Oscar nom in “A History of Violence” for 8 minutes of screen time.
I have used to call me “Birdsong” in emails.
Thank you, Bill. pic.twitter.com/psMRUo499E— John Fugelsang (@JohnFugelsang) March 13, 2022
