June 15, 20215 yr Reading his obituary in The Hollywood Reporter, I was amazed at how many films starring Beatty I've seen. He was definitely one of the finest actors of our time. His six minute monologue, during a scenne with Peter Finch in Network earned him an Academy Award nomination. "You have meddled with the primal forces of nature Mr. Beale, and I won't have it!" Brilliant. I was today years old when I learned that Beatty was a Louisville native. A nice read in the THR article, "Ned Beatty, Acclaimed Character Actor in 'Deliverance,' 'Network' and 'Homicide: Life on the Street,' Dies at 83" can be found in the link below.
