I was sorely shocked and disappointed to learn Micheal was "queer".I'll never forget his roles in 'Patch Adams' and 'Green Mile'. Great stuff. He will never be replaced.Rest in Peace,Micheal

He did such a good job as Eduard Delacroix in The Green Mile. I listened to the book on tape long before I knew they were making a movie. He really owned the character. I'm sorry that he's gone.
