Actor Michael Wright, Star of ‘The Five Heartbeats’ and ‘V,’ Dies at 70

I remember him best from the V series back in the 80s. He was one of the heroes of the resistance to the alien invasion. Rest in Peace.


While I'm not an aficionado of acting, I'll never forget Michael Wright's character in V, Elias Taylor, whose life of crime - which earned him harsh criticism when times were good - actually proved an asset when good people became criminals and needed someone with connections and experience with the underworld.

It takes all kinds of people to make up the human race, because you never know what skills may be needed in the future.

At least, that's the theme _I_ read into the story.

Yeah, I own V (sadly only in digital for now), and just rewatched it maybe a month or two back. His character arc was great.
