I'll always think Freddy Got Fingered is funny. #releasethegreencut

So sad that he's gone. Loved him in Men in Black and Defending Your Life.

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
Seemed to have been known for comical parts in his later years, but he was the go-to Guy when adult art films were in their infancy. i,e Coming Apart,&Tropic Of Cancer. For me, the overlooked Payday (1973) is his shining moment. Southern-fried 70’s nihilism at it’s finest! |
Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
When Larry Sanders was in the air, whoever wrote the TV Guide synopsis of one episode had a bit of a laugh, I don't remember the exact wording, but it was basically, "Artie gets ripped after he's all torn up about Larry ignoring him."

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
That's too bad. Loved him as Artie, and just watched him in Summer Rental a couple of nights ago.
May he RIP. |
Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
The first thing I remember seeing him in was Beastmaster. Loved seeing him in anything. RIP

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
God, he was awful in Men Black 2, with that stupid jump kick, but he was a booze hound like no other. He got so wasted once that he broke into a bank and passed out in it.

RIP :(

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
Whenever I think of Rip Torn I think of Defending Your Life. He's a big part of why I love that movie.
And, let's face it, no actor ever had a better name than Rip Torn. ;) |
Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
He was So amazing in Larry Sanders. So many 21st century TV comedy performances owe a debt to his deadpan work on that show. Half the cast of Veep is channeling him.

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
I didn't realize that he was still alive. I didn't really follow his work that closely and I think I just assumed he was dead because they killed him offscreen in MIB3, lol.

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
:rip: What a bummer! Wonder how many days he's looking at...
|
Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
I always get him confused with Rip Taylor who played the geenie on Sigmung the Sea Monster.

Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
Here it is. 30 seconds of comedy genius. |
Re: RIP Rip Torn (1931-2019)
I was just watching MiB2 yesterday. He had great comedic chops, especially in The Larry Sanders Show. :rip:

I'll have to check out Payday from 1973 mentioned earlier in the thread. Never heard of it but sounds right up my alley. |
