Maybe a less known movie, but he was great in “Top Secret”. (Comedy by the people who did “Airplane!” And “Naked Gun”) Terrific example of playing a ridiculously silly role completely straight. He absolutely nailed it.
Watched the Doors film many times back in the day through a haze of smoke. One of my favourite actors of our generation. I loved that Tom Cruise got Val his little swan song role in Mavrick. RIP Ice Man.
Watched his documentary recently. The throat cancer took a toll. He was really into portraying Mark Twain and was a very underrated actor. Thought he stole the show in first Top Gun. RIP

He was great as Jim Morrison in The Doors biopic and superb in the film, Heat.
