He was VERY UNDERRATED in this industry!!! Rest in power, sir!!

[@erickanew]

He wasn't underrated, he was in a lot of movies, and won an Oscar, a lot of famous actors never won an Oscar

[@PL2550Dolphins]

An Officer and A Gentleman: "Don't you eyeball me boy" will forever be the greatest line he ever delivered 😆. A long life; his talent gave us entertainment and joy.

[@darnellmiller1215]

A legendary existence...my most memorable Louis Gossett viewing was when he made a Cameo appearance on the Jefferson's as George's best friend from the Navy and he was hitting on Louise behind George's back, yet right in his face but George had so much trust in him, he couldn't see it. Louis' performance in that was masterful, he was crazy smooth 😂. Rest In Peace Mr. Gossett, you lived your life to the fullest and took many of us along with you...may God be pleased with you, sir!

I will use every means necessary, fair and unfair, to trip you up - that is, to expose your weaknesses... both as a potential aviator, and as a human being. The prize at the other end is a flight education worth $1 million! But first, you gotta get past ME. Louis Gossett Jr. as Sgt. Foley, “An Officer and a Gentleman”
