You know, I have nothing to say. He seemed like a genuinely good guy, moderately awed by his level of fame -- a decent actor who knew his limitations.

I haven't seen that in an age. It's really funny even apart from the physical comedy.

First time I remember seeing him was in "The Outsiders" as the oldest brother. Was never like a huge fan, but dude knew who he was as an actor and worked with it. Alway liked his little turn in "Donnie Darko." RIP

One of my old co-workers waited tables at a little seafood restaurant in Mena, Arkansas when she was in high school and claimed that Patrick Swayze once came in for a meal with his wife and was a super nice dude. I guess he owned some vacation property in southern Arkansas, of all places.

I mean, it's not an awfully good movie, but it's sweet. I'd happily watch it on an airplane, or if one of the actors just died.

next of kin (bloody hillbilly revenge)
steel dawn (bloody post-apocalyptic murder gangs)
youngblood (bloody hockey fights)
red dawn (greatest bloody russian movie ever made)
point break (bloody zen surf robbers)

I think I've told this one elsewhere, but I was working at the hotel he stayed at when they were filming North & South Pt 2 in Natchez. He liked to hang out at the hotel bar, but inevitably would have to bail when the groupies started gathering around him. I'd seen him around for a few days, and he already knew about the service elevator by the time I happened to be walking through the lobby and met him coming the other way fast. "Hey buddy, can you help me a minute?""Sure, what's up?""Can you take me up to seven in the service elevator?""Sure, no problem."On the way up, he says "There were a couple of girls in the bar I had to get away from.""haha, glad to help."Silence while I concentrate on stopping the (manual) elevator flush with the 7th floor."Smooth.""Thanks...here you go.""'Preciate it, buddy.""Any time."
