It was quite a shock to learn of the passing of 93-year-old James Earl Jones on Monday, September 9. The Emmy, Grammy and Tony winner (he also has an honorary Oscar) has a career that extends through multiple generations and across several franchises in television, film and Broadway, and that is nothing short of remarkable (his last projects being Obi-Wan Kenobi and Coming 2 America.)
While some will look at his extensive resume ready to name some of his more popular roles as their favorite, I may be going against the grain in saying his best work as an actor is in the under-the-radar movie Claudine.
