Default RIP Peter Graves

We used to watch Mission Impossible years ago -- "Your mission, should you decide to accept it...". I also enjoyed his role in Airplane, very funny movie.

I remember him as the father in Fury too. To see him in Airplane was the best. Here is this serious actor from MI doing comedy "Do you like gladiator movies?".
