They said no foul play suspected, so carbon monoxide? Gotta be something.
Probably killed her on purpose. Couldn’t live with the idea of her with another man. 30 year age difference. That’s the problem when you’re out at those bars jdb. 63. She had one more run in her. But look at this guy. Those age gaps are real good in the beginning but boy they’re ugly on the back end.
I watched the first episode of the baldwin’s on tlc. It was excellent. He’s 66 with 7 kids and one is a baby. Exhausting but he does have two nannies
I randomly just watched French Connection a couple weeks ago. An absolute all timer. RIP.
He should have consulted Chris Beard how to properly choke her without killing. DWSProbably killed her on purpose. Couldn’t live with the idea of her with another man. 30 year age difference.

Love Gene Hackman!
Loved all his work. Very versatile. Liked him best in Hoosiers. Every scene was top drawer.
One of his best with a fitting soundtrack.

Including the AOTF. Died years ago without a proper burial or eulogy.
Great movie. I'd say one of Wes Anderson's best movies. I love Rushmore - those two are easily head and shoulders the best of that group. I do love Bottle Rocket as a sentimental favorite. I remember watching that and thinking it was like nothing else I'd seen.
The movie was good, but a lot of uniforms errors. They could have consulted with a junior officer and avoided those.
That was a movie that I would stop and watch every time I passed it flipping channels, you know, the old days. Absolutely a hidden gem.
Ha. Watching a navy movie with you is like watching a lawyer movie with me. My stoker won’t allow me to say anything.
A former boss was one of Rickover's hand-chosen submarine engineers. His wife, also a former boss of mine, talked him into going to see Red October. At one point he said loudly, "that's BS", and not the abbreviated version, got up and left.
Gene Hackman's Family Suspects Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Unforgiven and the royal tenenbaums were two of his best.
RIP to a legend.
RIP to a legend.
I remember seeing The Poseidon Adventure in the theater as a kid and thinking Gene was just about the coolest guy ever.
Two years later, that other great Irwin Allen movie, The Towering Inferno, came out, and another action movie hero was born...

Word is he hated Hoosiers and thought it could ruin his career.
I remember seeing this too. I think the guys who wrote it - who I believe still live in Bloomington - talked about how he almost immediately regretted signing on and basically thought they weren't up to making the movie.
This article quotes David Anspaugh about a scene in the movie where you can actually see Hackman telling Hopper that he thought they both ended their careers by signing onto it:
"There's a scene in the montage where Hickory starts winning, and there's a shot of Dennis Hopper. The camera's across the floor, and it's shooting towards the Hickory bench, and you've got music going. And you see Hopper and Hackman sitting there, and you see Dennis kind of laugh and slap his leg. That was a reaction, and I didn't find this out until just a couple year before Dennis passed. He finally told me, 'Don't you know what happened there? Hackman said to me, 'Dennis, I hope you've invested well, because we'll never work again after this film.' He had no belief in that movie, or me, at the time."
Obviously when the movie came out and it started getting critical acclaim he changed his tune.
Your dead wife hypothesis sounds plausible enough. Now, explain his crotch-sniffing dead dog.Probably killed her on purpose.
