    RIP Charles Grodin. You were one of the greats. Midnight Run is one of the best-acted comedies of all time...the "new watch" scene gets me in the feels every time.

    The ultimate, "Noodge." He never gave it away with a wink or explanation. The joke was never on Grodin - it was always on us.

    Charles Grodin was a unique persona that embodied an outlook that wasn’t concerned with promotion or topical references in other words money. I miss those days and people like him. He was so great in Heaven Can Wait the Warren Beatty version with Dyan Cannon and Julie Christie. Ironic and cynical, but only for humors sake. An original in a time when originality was allowed to flourish.

This appearance of a downbeat Charles Grodin seems more real or genuine in this light.
