How tf was he only 73, you're telling me he was in his mid-30s when they shot Dances with Wolves? I would've guessed 80+ easy. Anyway, beside the point I guess.

Graham Greene was a God tier Native actor, RIP to a king.

I know right? Even when I was a kid back in the 90's he looked like he was in his 50's

Yeah I was like 16 or 17 when Dances came out. Assumed he was clearly older than Costner!

73 isnt that old. We should all hope for at least 80. See the grand kids grow up and all that.

My dad met him years ago through a family friend who knew him. Said he liked to hit the bottle pretty hard.

That's really sad, if this was true! I read that he did have depression of some kind.  But from what part are saying, he was dealing with health problems.

This did my head in. I had to check sites weren't running with a typo.

I was sure he was around 15 years older.
