There are some actors/actresses who kept on working in their later years even after getting a terminal illness or becoming very sick. What are some movies in which you could clearly tell an actor/actress was ill with the way they look/acted?
For example: Raul Julia - Street Fighter Richard Pryor - Another You |

TV: Jeremy Brett in the last season of his Sherlock Holmes is hard to watch. He's obviously in pain and medicated.

John Cazale in the Deer Hunter. Chadwick Bozeman in Da 5 Bloods. Some believe John Cazale's illness was even visible in 'Dog Day Afternoon'. He was an exceptionally strong man to soldier on through his illness, a character trait he'd displayed throughout his life.
As a Spike Lee fan, I'm keen to see 'Da 5 Bloods'.
"When I first saw John, I instantly thought he was so interesting. Everybody was always around him because he had a very congenial way of expressing himself."

I hate to admit it having seen several pictures featuring him in his prime, but Vincent Price seemed rather frail in Edward Scissorhands.

Raul Julia - Street Fighter Raul Julia - Down Came A Blackbird. I believe that was his last film. I'm pretty sure Street Fighter was his last film. He died after filming was complete.

Raul Julia - Down Came A Blackbird. I believe that was his last film. I'm pretty sure Street Fighter was his last film. He died after filming was complete. I see the difference -- one of them was a feature film and other was a tv film. SF was a feature film but Blackbird was the last thing he shot. According to wikipedia:
"This would be his final role in a major film, with his last work being a supporting role in the television drama Down Came a Blackbird, which was filmed in Toronto, Ontario during September and October 1994."
