I liked his work. Good actor. Aside from Jurassic Park, A Cry In The Dark with Meryl Streep and Dead Calm with Nicole Kidman were two films that I really enjoyed. He also was excellent in Peaky Blinders. RIP

I just heard the obit for Neill on NPR, and thought something he said about dying was pretty cool. He'd had cancer for about five years, and was asked at some point if he was afraid of death. He said he wasn't, but the prospect of dying disappointed him because he wouldn't be able to see his grandkids grow up, or get to see the olive trees mature on his farm in New Zealand.

RIP Sam Neil.
