Dabney Coleman was one of my favorite actors growing up.

Fantastic as a heel, always, but also a fantastic hero in CLOAK AND DAGGER.

Dabney Coleman dead

Gave iconic performances in 9 to 5 and TOOTSIE, two of the best comedies ever.

There was nobody like him.

Dabney Coleman was always there, sitting in booth number one (appropriately), having his trademark steak.

I had always loved him as an actor, and loved him more as we became friends.

Xxx
