I saw this earlier today. There was a biopic on Netflix(?) maybe last year or 2023 about his declining health, my wife and I hoped he could overcome his health issues. We both loved all of his movies, including Top Secret.

Known for going the extra mile to get it right in his character depictions as an actor.
Tombstone is worth watching for his Doc Holliday alone, even though it’s overall a great movie. He
is Jim Morrison in
The Doors, including his singing - it’s a wierd movie, but Jim Morrison was a wierd dude. I don’t care to watch that again (I couldn’t watch it all the first time), but I’ve got
Tombstone on DVD.
