Another sad passing and one i did not expect. He was always great - especially in Walter Hill films and The Emerald Forest. It was a real treat when he turned up on Deadwood making an already amazing cast even more amazing.

R.I.P.

Emerald Forest is very much a John Boorman film. It's a terrific story, based on a true one, and Boothe is very good in it. A bit more vulnerable than usual perhaps. Plus, there's great scenery.
