He brought the tradition of Mad Scientist to a fitting end, and I'm gonna miss him.

An extraordinarily ageless and ubiquitous actor - a seven decade career, usually as one of the best creeps on film. especially as elder statesmen of the underworld. And, according to his daughter, only recently in a period of declining health. I'll have what he's having . . .
