The Greats: Gene Hackman


When I write my column "The Greats," which is about Hollywood's living legends, I try hard not to make the essays sound like eulogies. (The whole point of the column is to celebrate these people in their lifetime, after all.) But for Gene Hackman, who's been retired for 10 years, it's a little more complicated. My tribute to the pride of Danville, Illinois is up now at Paste.
