Robert Forster, Oscar-nominee for 'Jackie Brown,' dies at 78.
Robert Forster, the handsome and omnipresent character actor who got a career resurgence and Oscar-nomination for playing bail bondsman Max Cherry in"Jackie Brown," has died. He was 78.
Condolences poured in Friday night on social media. Bryan Cranston wrote on Twitter that Forster was a"lovely man and a consummate actor." The two met on the 1980 film"Alligator" and then worked together again on"Breaking Bad" and the spinoff film"El Camino," which launched on Netflix Friday. A fortuitous role in the 1965 Broadway production"Mrs. Dally Has a Lover" put him on Darryl Zanuck's radar, who signed him to a studio contract. He would soon make his film debut in the 1967 John Huston film"Reflections in a Golden Eye," with Marlon Brando and Elizabeth Taylor.
"I had four kids, I took any job I could get," he said in the same interview last year."Every time it reached a lower level I thought I could tolerate, it dropped some more, and then some more. Near the end I had no agent, no manager, no lawyer, no nothing. I was taking whatever fell thru the cracks."
