Ben Gazzara for "Roadhouse" 1989 - Bobbie Wygant Archive

[@fuiers]

What a charisma. He was brilliant in Roadhouse, which is the greatest movie ever made.

[@dothebartman9156]

Man Ben was a class act, such a cool and insightful guy with a great voice. Such an underrated presence

[@jh76103]

I wish I could have met Ben Gazzara. He was scrumptious!

[@johnn5019]

Ben was a great actor and I really enjoyed him in Cassavetes movies (Husbands, Opening Night, Killing of Chinese Bookie). He was an amazing talent filled with life. He will be greatly missed,

[@thesunisbright]

i miss this guy he was simply great.

[@hokutoueda6215]

So many amazing actors and writers of this generation. The John Cassavetes, the Peter Falks, the Seymour Cassels and the talented Ben Gazzaras of the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and beyond. So much talent and creativity. Why we don't have talented people like this right now, in current generation?

Wish it was 1989 again.

I worked with Ben in Roadhouse and every single morning, he had his face in the newspaper. I always said "good morning" with a smile but he never even looked up. 🙁

[@thesunisbright]

what actor were you in the movie?

[@Its_Renee_]

@@thesunisbright I was background. Mostly in the bar.

[@CD-yr8tw]

He was in character.

[@J19ves]

A wonderful voice for sure owned by a very good actor & director👍🏻 RIP

[@briansheridan5208]

Excellent Actor...cool...class act

[@IrishScribbler]

It really confirms that these guys were superb actors and totally opposite to their characters in real life. Both Ben and Marshall Teague were some of the greatest villains, yet in real life they are humble, sweet and incredibly nice guys. RIP Ben.

I love his voice. So articulate. A special kind of actor and man. This interview must have been very shortly after Cassavete's death.

[@jasonstriker5975]

Brad Wesley was one of the few bad guys I actually liked. Ben was a terrific actor.

[@jackgraffiti9815]

Italian class ❤

[@mr.eastcoast3879]

"Wesleyyyyyy!!"

[@jonspengler5891]

Guy should have won an award for St Jack

[@Brian-yt8fu]

Roadhouse hes a very charming bad guy.

[@Legoflymaster89]

[@suzied4270]

Well Dorothy did a great impression of him while holding the baby.

[@craigwilson3532]

Ben def pulled off the role well...great bad guy

[@robertwilson214]

He's so stubborn in roadhouse.As if Dalton's the problem and not him.Great performance.

[@lezlov]

I saw tonight the movie

[@dersucapitanuzala]

Interesante plano-contraplano. Primero todo el plano. Luego todo el contraplano.

[@philg4116]

what was the TV movie where he played an evil domineering dad who besides being a crook tongue kissed his kids?

[@cynthiacynthia5821]

Hungría

[@operasinger2126]

Ben could certainly act sinister.
