Gordon Pinsent on Brando & 'Blacula'

www.cbc.ca/stro...
In case you weren't convinced Canadian actor Gordon Pinsent is awesome (and you should be convinced by now), how about these two facts: 1) he taught Marlon Brando to sing 'Danny Boy' by plying him with Irish whiskey, and 2) he was in blaxploitation vampire movie 'Blacula,' and he didn't even have to grow an Afro specially for the part: he already had one thanks to his turn in 'The Rowdyman.'
Gordon's memoir, 'Next,' is in bookstores now.

I just read of his passing. A true loss. One of Canada’s greatest actors. My favorite role of his will always be The President in Colossus The Forbin Project. God bless him❤️🇺🇸🇨🇦
