Yeah, reading between the lines, it sounds like the poor guy was not in any condition to take care of himself and likely had no idea what was even happening to him for that week. What a horrible way to go.
There are so many things about Hackman I’m just now realizing. Had no idea he was that old (95), was suffering from Alzheimer’s, or that he hasn’t acted since 2004. He had such a huge presence that if you put me on the spot, I would have said he was in a movie 2-3 years ago. RIP to a legend.
That’s the sad subtext I got from reading it.
