Obviously an extremely complicated legacy, but the man was undeniably a great talent. In Cold Blood and Lost Highway are two iconic performances that should've garnered him Oscar attention if the Academy was the slightest bit cool.

Not only a complicated kegacy but a complicated actor - particularly in his great 1-2 punch period imo which is In Cold Blood and Electra Glide in Blue ........Blake is also a fantastic Jimmy Hoffa in Blood Feud (1981) .... I don't know how many people here watch old TV Talk shows - probably not many (um) but he was a very intimidating and also weirdly hilarious talk show guest in the 70s Blake also comes from a different era where his most famous character was a cool cop - when that wasn't an oxymoron in our drama - Baretta was in many ways a "Serpico on TV" in his character quirks .....

His performance in In Cold Blood might just be my favorite male performance of all time. And his turn in Lost Highway still haunts me to this day.

Tweeting an "edgy" and "oooh, he went there!" tweet when your username is "Disney Prime Plus" just doesn't work and comes off unintentionally funny. Even though, yeah, Blake probably did it.
