So Philip Baker Hall just landed a supporting role in that big Paul Thomas Anderson film in the sky, thus we look up to the movie heavens and salute them in his honor. Feel free to share your fondest cinematic memories of Mr. Hall in the comments section below.

Sean

This one really hurts for me. I grew up on midnight run, secret honour, hard Eight, boogie nights and magnolia (yeah I was an odd cinemad kid / teenager and still am). I loved Hall in everything he did even his bad movies were great just for his scenes

Mike

Fantastic actor.

Paul Nolan

Glad you chose a pic of Hard Eight - PBH in that film gives as good a cinematic performance as you’ll ever see.

Aron Harris

Still remember the first time I watched Hard Eight after I signed up for FilmStruck. He was captivating as Sydney. One of my favorite films to this day.

Thomas Edwards

That diner scene in Hard 8, when you just know, this is going to be good. RIP.

Paul Nolan

Two other things that have always stayed with me from Hard Eight since first seeing at 15/16 - Gwyneth Paltrow’s greatest performance & Philip Seymour Hoffman has a three-minute cameo that burns a hole in the screen. Really just fantastic performances all round - truly one of the great American film debuts from PTA.

Mr. Bookman will never really die.

he had a great run and a lot of great performances but agreed with those who love Bookman. A machine gun volley of great lines delivered perfectly.

Adam Fix

Obviously Sydney, his other 2 Anderson films, Midnight Run, Secret Honor and of course his two episodes of Seinfeld. I think it's fair to say we've lost one of the best character actors.

Brian Rooney

I like simple pleasures, like butter in my ass and lollipops in my mouth. That's just me. That's just something that I enjoy. Call me crazy, call me a pervert.

Nathan Stack

Hi did more acting with his eyes than most actors can do with their entire bodies.

Knokkel knokkel

I mostly remember Hall from TV! He was good.

Mickey Rock

I always think of him as Sherwood Morrill in Fincher’s ZODIAC. Weirdly, he’s in another movie about the Zodiac killer called THE ZODIAC from 2005 as well.

FlyingWaffle

The type of actor that when I saw he was in a movie, I knew it was going to be a good one.

Seneca Garcia

Just recently watched Hard Eight for the first time - really good . . .

Adam if ur reading this Pharmabro martin shkreli got released from jail, im sure he would be down for Brets pod, dudes loaded with content on big pharma and their contradictions and how they made an example of him

Keith Harmon

“I'm not a complicated man. I like cinema. In particular, I like to see people fucking on film. But, I don't want to win an Oscar and I don't want to re-invent the wheel. I like simple pleasures, like butter in my ass and lollipops in my mouth. That's just me. That's just something that I enjoy. Call me crazy, call me a pervert. But, there's one little thing that I'mg going to do in this life and that is I'm going to make a dollar and a cent in this business.” Floyd Gondolli-Boogie Nights No truer words spoken about the cinematic arts!

Eric M. Rhein

Gotta love how plain spoken they guys he played always are, especially when PTA is writing w/ him in mind. Love his work.

He was so fucking funny in that 2 min scene; Jerry broke character but Mr. Hall didn't, a true pro.

Billy Schafer

"Sidney, don't say another fuckin' word, or I'll get up and bury this phone in your head!" (I know, it's not his line, but it's directed at him, and I love the "Oh, well..." looks he gives Dennis Farina.)

Is this an episode? Says unlocked

Mr Bookman, an all time favorite
