RIP - great actor, thought he looked a little frail in the 2nd series of The Koninsky Method

That's a shame. Oddly his role in Catch-22 which is what I'll always associate him with, gets just a passing mention in that article. Perhaps the authors are relatively young.

This is sad, one of my favourite ever films is 'The Return of Captain Invincible', I'll be rewatching it this weekend.

He was superb in the fanatastic Little Miss Sunshine. RIP.

Bradshaw does a good write-up.

Alan Arkin was an actor of humour and candour who became a fierce screen presence | Peter Bradshaw

In films ranging from Catch-22 to Little Miss Sunshine, Arkin was renowned for the technical virtuosity he brought to each role of his colossal career
