Jumbo Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Hate and appreciate these threads at the same time.  Too many good movies, too many fine performances. And a very cool dude.  Enemy Mine. The Choirboys. Roots. A Raisin in the Sun.  rip, Mr. Gossett. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I'd forgotten he was the first black man to win the Oscar for best supporting actor (in An Officer and a Gentlemen). He also won an Emmy for Roots. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sisko Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Enemy Mine and Roots are probably my two favorites. I actually thought he did get an Oscar for the former but my memory sucks. Gossett was a hell of an actor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
