Legendary Austin stunt performer and filmmaker Gary Kent died Wednesday.
. Kent's fingerprints were on those films, along with a few bumps, scrapes, bruises, and occasionally a little blood: He sliced his arm open during a barfight scene in 1967'sThis was the era and level of filmmaking where hanging around a set and never saying no could get you a long way – and Kent was willing to do anything. Stunts, acting, cinematography, special effects, unit management, he'd do it, and behind the scenes he was also working on his own scripts.
Then he was hired to work on a project in Dallas: When he got there financing fell through, and he took the opportunity to write and direct New Age psycho-drama and future Turner Classic Movies cult favorite. That's where he met his third wife, Tomi Barret: They later appeared together in 1982 slasherOf course, an onscreen life in stunts only last as long as the body will allow, and Kent had to give up on dives and punches when he suffered a leg injury on the set of 2002's.
