Let me tell you a little story about acting. I was doing this Showtime movie, Hot Ice with Anne Archer, never once touched my per diem. I'd go to Craft Service, get some raw veggies, bacon, Cup-A-Soup... baby, I got a stew going.
What about his stew advice in Arrested Development? Nothing like a great stew....or I assume, I've never had a great one, stews aren't for me but damn if I don't chuckle for that line.
This man had such a magnetic screen presence. We got lucky to have him like a Lee Van Cleef of those old "spaghetti westerns", but among Jawas and Tie Fighters, he was damn near perfect in a perfect role.
