Hollywood Mourns: Duvall, Wiseman, Legends Lost

Actor Robert Duvall, known for his versatile performances in films like "The Godfather" and "Apocalypse Now," died on Sunday at the age of 95, according to a Facebook post by his wife, Luciana, on Monday. The news of his passing was met with tributes from fellow actors and filmmakers, including Francis Ford Coppola and Al Pacino. Also, Frederick Wiseman, the celebrated documentary filmmaker, died at 96.

Duvall's long and distinguished career saw him bring a wide range of characters to life, from tough Marines to tender-hearted cowboys, according to NPR News. Coppola, in an Instagram post, remembered Duvall as "such a great actor and such an essential part of American Zoetrope." Pacino, who worked with Duvall in "The Godfather Part II," said, "It was an honor to have worked with Robert Duvall... I will miss him."

Wiseman, who passed away at the age of 96, was known for his documentaries that captured the "weirdness and wonder of everyday life," as described by NPR News. He made roughly 50 documentaries, many of which chronicled the inner workings of everyday institutions.

The loss of both Duvall and Wiseman was felt across the entertainment industry. The tributes from colleagues and the impact of their work on cinema and documentary filmmaking will be remembered.
