That is believed to have been Hackman's "last day of life," the sheriff said, noting that it is still unclear when Arakawa died.

A cause and manner of death remain pending, he said. Investigators are still awaiting full autopsy results and toxicology reports, he said.

Mendoza said it could be at least three months before they have the final autopsy findings.

Remember one of my high school teachers showing us the Hoosiers film. The teacher was big into bssketball - was playing semi pro at the time.

That makes it even stranger IMO.

Something weird was happening/went down, I'd say at least that is clear.

All seems just so strange with the timeline of when she supposedly died with her decomposition of her body compared to his

He had a great resume, that’s for sure. He’s been out of the spotlight for quite some time. Living to 95 is a good life

Nice list but I would add No Way Out, The Replacements and The Firm :thumbup:
 
While the movie itself was average, this is one of my favorite movie quotes ..



Smith: What is happening?
Hackman: I blew up the building.
Smith: Why?
Hackman: Because you made a phone call!
