Re: RIP Dean Stockwell
RIP.
My first memories of him were from Quantum Leap, which I watched as a child. He has the kind of face/character that sticks too: I'd always notice him from then on whenever he popped up. 85 is not a bad innings either! I'm overdue for a Blue Velvet rewatch, this edges me closer... For now I'll just raise a glass in Hap's Diner.

Re: RIP Dean Stockwell
I mentioned him in the Twin Peaks thread dedicated to deceased actors even though he was never in Twin Peaks, but his performance in Blue Velvet made him so "lynchian" to me that I almost feel like he was.
He was very charismatic. I especially enjoyed his performance in Anchors Aweigh (1945.) with Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly, and, of course, Blue Velvet; the scene in which he lip-syncs In Dreams is unforgettable, so iconic.
