He was also in The Scorpion King in a minor role. He'll always be King Theoden to me. Maybe I need to paint my Theoden miniature in his honor. RIP Bernard Hill, and my condolences to his family and friends.

In true Roger Corman fashion, I hope his obituary is loaded with nudity and miniatures, and the best parts are reused in dozens of obituaries yet to come.
I remember him from 9-5, Wargames, and Cloak & Dagger (an 80s spy movie connected to the Atari game, nothing to do with the comic book characters).

"You listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you Sheriff Truman." - Twin Peaks
My favorite documentary he did was The Greatest Movie Ever Sold. A movie about product placement, paid for completely with product placement in the movie. Trying to get the shampoo maker Mane&Tail to sponsor them was just classic.
Perhaps not a name many would instantly recognise, as he was best known for stuff in the 90’s including Sunchyme and Carnevale De Paris.

I enjoyed Donald Sutherland in basically everything I saw him in, even when he played a villain. But my favorite role of his was definitely Oddball in Kelly's Heroes, and from the comments in here I'd say I share that sentiment with many. RIP to a real one.

One of the roles that doesn;t seem to have been getting much note is his entry in the Buffy film. Creepiest old man to be lurking around high schools ever. It was glorious
