I havent seen alot of his movies. I only remember him from City Slickers and Tango and Cash. I know that he is a legend though and a great actor.

I still remember in City Slickers when he said that life is about one thing... and you have to figure out what that one thing is.

I only saw him In the City Slickers Movies. I thought he was great. He was very fit for his age. Sad to see him go, but it was a good innings.

It's sad to hear he died, I remember him from the 80's TV show Ripley's Believe It or Not:

RIP. Great actor but, as mentioned by a few people, I only really remember him from City Slickers.
