Bruce Glover, the star of Diamonds Are Forever and Chinatown, and father of acclaimed actor Crispin Glover, has died at the age of 92. Crispin, star of the Back to the Future and the Charlie’s Angels film series, announced his father’s death on Instagram with a series of posts. Bruce Glover played assassin Mr. Wint in the Sean Connery-led 1971 Bond film, as well as Duffy in Chinatown and Grady Coker in the Walking Tall series. Glover was born in Chicago, and had two children (including Crispin) with his wife Betty, who predeceased him, in 2016. Despite never taking an acting class, Glover was committed to producing work that was unique; in a 2019 interview, he explained, “If I am anything as an actor, it is that I will never be the usual,” continuing, “I will be the unusual, and I intend to continue that whatever I am doing, whether it be acting, or I’m writing, or I am going to be painting or whatever I am going to be doing. It is uniquely my own.”
