I just finished watching "The French Connection" again. Repeats of "The Seven-Ups" and "Marathon Man" just previously. He was a real pro.

With not the greatest range as a character actor, he had, as you say, a real magnetism. Even in the ordinary "...Seven-Ups" he alone made it watchable and enjoyable.

I especially remember "All That Jazz". There he really transcended his noble everyman assignment.

He's not all that dead if we can still watch him onscreen.
