"Val Kilmer was a thoughtful guy and a true artist, which is probably one reason he slid better into supporting roles where, unburdened by the demands of leading-man status." And sometimes stole the show. Rest in peace.

Val Kilmer’s performance in “Real Genius” (1985) informed so much of my social/comedic sensibility as a Gen-X teenager. I wanted his character Chris’s sense of humor so badly.

Rest well, Iceman. I thought you were cool as hell.

But I know what love is, Jenny
