Thats a drag. Looks like I'll watch my favorite Bronson movie "Hard Times" in memory of him. RIP

Bummer, may he RIP

Damn...never realized he was that old. Over the years he never seemed to age a whole lot, so I still picture him as he is in his '60s and '70s movies.

I can only wish I could age that well.

RIP, I too didn't know he was that old.

Dirty Dozen is still one of my favorite movies.

I think he did most of his aging early.

If you want to see his best film, check him out as Harmonica in Once Upon A Time In The West.

A GREAT western, and FINALLY due out on dvd this fall! Certainly one of his best roles and films.
Hopefully hes up there somewhere keeping the bad guys out of mischief!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but he was apparently very popular in Japan where he had a nickname that translated along the lines of "Rubber-Face". I always thought that was fitting!

All you Bronson fans need to check out the movie "Hard Times" with him, and James Coburn, and Strother Martin. He's a bare nuckle fighter, and it's set in the big easy during the depression. This is really an excellent movie.
