He has been battling throat cancer and its repercussions for a very long time now. That is why he was like he was in Maverick

Re: RIP Val Kilmer

For me , his best film was Heat. But I’m biased as Heat is one of my all time faves

Agreed…

You may find this of interest.

Quote:

After McCauley and his crew seem to successfully pull off another bank robbery, they’re intercepted by Hanna and the LAPD out on the street, leading to a gunfight. This shootout sequence was so authentic and so detailed that it has been shown to U.S. Marine recruits as an example of perfect form under gunfire (via Esquire). In a behind-the-scenes featurette about Heat’s L.A. bank heist gunfight sequence, Val Kilmer says he had heard that when the moment his character reloads, Marine trainers tell recruits, “If you can’t change a clip as fast as this actor, get out of my army!”

I thought he was terrific in Tombstone as well…
