Wow, 86. Sad to hear. I remember him best from The Heartbreak Kid.
What a great actor, from The Heartbreak Kid through Beethoven and the sublime Midnight Run.
86, a decent innings. RIP.

Sad, another stalwart from my younger years gone. RIP Charles. I enjoyed Midnight Run the other week, lucky to catch it starting on one of the channels.
[He also made an appearance in Rosemary's Baby, another favourite of mine - let's not mention Beethoven or Beethoven's 2nd.]
Even though I remember him for acting in Midnight Run, when I picture him in my mind's eye, it's always as his character in Beethoven. Weird.
RIP.
One of the best. Oddly, I thought about him a few days ago, thinking he couldn’t have too long left.
Midnight Run will always be one of my favourite films.
RIP
RIP. I didn't realize the heartbreak kid was an old movie..(was thinking about the Ben Stiller one)
Midnight Run is a personal fave; him & De Niro were great together. RIP
Always seemed like or played a gentle , likeable chap. I liked him in midnight run as the accountant but also as the father in Beethoven. RIP

Charles was also excellent in Warren Beatty's 1978 film, Heaven Can Wait.
RIP "The Duke"
