RIP Charles Grodin, Star of The Great Muppet Caper, King Kong, and Midnight Run
Charles Grodin, one of the great comedic actors of all time, died this week at the age of 86. When people hear Grodin's name, the first movie they probably think of is Midnight Run. The 1988 Martin Brest action comedy is a classic of the genre and showcases Grodin's smug, everyman persona beautifully.
