Oh gosh, I loved his acting! There are very few actors that could act as well as he, and there are absolutely none now that I think even come near his abilities. I'll still watch his movies when I see them on. Paul Newman had the same stage presence, that's the only one I can readily think of. Oh, Robert Redford and Clint Eastwood were and are some in the same category. I just saw "A Walk in the Woods" with RR and he's still good, IMO.
