Damn
A true great. He made anything he was in great. Pure acting ability and screen presence.

A favorite line of mine from "A Christmas Story"

On the big wooden crate that had the mighty-fine, one-legged lamp in it, "FRAGILE"

Pronounced by McGavin as, "fra-gee-lay"
and then he said, "must be Italian"


Spit up my pop on that one I did.

TT, thanks for the link. I had to use it to figure out who he was until I saw the pic. His name didn't ring a bell.
