Entertainment related because he was in the Right Stuff (Fred) and for some bizarre reason was also in Smokey and the Bandit 2.

That movie was kind of like the JFK assassination of the late 70's/early 80's. Pretty much everyone alive at the time was involved somehow.

The Right Stuff (edited last scene) - Absolutely Awe-Inspiring !!
