Very sad news. One of the most memorable concerts I've ever attended was in the early 70's
at the Hammersmith Odeon.
Rest in Peace....

Sad news from the BBC.
A few months ago I saw 'The Conversation' at the BFI with my son.
May they Rest in Peace....
'Oscar-winning US actor Gene Hackman, his wife Betsy Arakawa and their dog have been found dead at their
home in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
In a career spanning more than six decades, Hackman received two Academy Awards for his work on the movies
The French Connection and Unforgiven.
A statement from the Santa Fe County Sheriff in New Mexico said: "We can confirm that both Gene Hackman and
his wife were found deceased Wednesday afternoon at their residence on Sunset Trail.
"This is an active investigation - however, at this time we do not believe that foul play was a factor."
Hackman was 95, and his wife - a classical pianist - 64.
