-- William Hurt, whose laconic charisma and self-assured subtlety as an actor made him one of the 1980s foremost leading men in movies such as"Broadcast News,""Body Heat" and"The Big Chill," has died. He was 71.
In Lawrence Kasdan's 1981 steamy neo noir"Body Heat," Hurt starred alongside Kathleen Turner as a lawyer coaxed into murder. In 1983's"The Big Chill," again with Kasdan, Hurt played the brooding Vietnam War veteran Nick Carlton, one of a group of college pals who gather for their friend's funeral. Hurt was first married to actor Mary Beth Hurt from 1971 to 1982. While he was married, he began a relationship with Sandra Jennings, whose pregnancy with their son precipitated Hurt's divorce from Mary Beth Hurt. A high-profile court case ensued six years later in which Jennings claimed she had been Hurt's common-law wife under South Carolina law and thus entitled to a share of his earnings.
In those years, Hurt also struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, and attended rehabilitation clinics. He also developed a reputation for not always being an easy collaborator. The New Yorker called him"notoriously temperamental." In 1989, Hurt married to Heidi Henderson, who he met at rehab. They had two children together.
