I've seen quite a few of his movies , and I remember recently watching To Sir With Love again.

Very sad news R.I.P
He's one of those actors that made a difference and paved the way for others.

A real giant of an actor.
Of the films I've seen about him I haven't disliked any.

Sad news.
R.I.P.

A brilliant actor. He was exceptional in 'In The Heat Of The Night' , one of my all time favourites. RIP.
