Very sad.
His Doc Holliday portrayal in, 'Tombstone', was, for me, a masterpiece. Mr Kilmer 'stole' every scene.

Rest in Peace Val, rest in peace.

Agree on Doc Holliday. One of the best pieces of acting I have ever seen. Rest well.

Saw him on Netflix over the weekend by chance in a good prison movie called Felon (2008). Interesting supporting role for him.

Remember seeing him about 10 years ago and thinking he didn't look too healthy. Gone way too soon.

RIP Doc.

Apparently in order to get into the sick mindset he would take an ice bath before the shoot. Great actor and gone too soon. RIP, Val.

Such a great actor; it was sad to see him with the throat cancer. Pneumonia is what took him. God rest his soul.

Sad stuff. Just rewatched Heat the other day and it had me thinking about him. Rest in peace.
