'Graham Greene, a trailblazing Canadian First Nations actor who opened doors for Indigenous actors in Hollywood, died September 1 in a Toronto hospital after a long illness. The Oscar nominee from Dances with Wolves was 73.'

“He was a great man of morals, ethics and character and will be eternally missed,” Greene’s agent Michael Greene (no relation) said in a statement to Deadline. “You are finally free.'

'Behind every great role is an actor bold enough to believe in himself. In this surrealist sketch, we learn lessons on acting and life—straight from the fox’s mouth.In a therapist’s office, a struggling actor—sporting the literal head of a wolf—seeks guidance from a five-star rated, fox-headed psychiatrist who won’t stop answering an absurd parade of ringing phones. As the session spirals into a comically surreal commentary on the anxieties of artistic ambition and self-worth, the patient starts to question the legitimacy of his therapist’s rave reviews—until the mask slips and reveals none other than legendary actor Graham Greene.'
''Greene plays Kicking Bird in the film ... the Sioux tribe's medicine man who befriends Kevin Costner's character. The role earned Graham an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor, though he lost to Joe Pesci for "Goodfellas."

Graham also appeared in "Green Mile," "Snow Dogs," "The Twilight Saga: New Moon," "Wind River," "Molly's Game," and the TV shows "American Gods" and "Riverdale" among many more roles.''

Any of you long-time PBS fans will remember him as Edgar Montrose on the Red Green show. Fun fact: He was a fan of the show and asked to be part of it. Ka-BOOM!
