Well, he went out with a great movie.
Sad, though 81 is not young. Nashville is one of my favorite movies

“No other filmmaker has gotten a better shake than I have,” Altman
said while accepting the award. “I’m very fortunate in my career.
I’ve never had to direct a film I didn’t choose or develop. My love
for filmmaking has given me an entree to the world and to the human
condition.”
The culture trust does recognize talent sometimes, eh?
