| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Two-time Oscar winner Gene Hackman, 95, has died of heart problems. This was reported by the Fox News channel. The New Mexico Medical Examiner's Office has released the final autopsy results. It turned out that the actor had congestive heart failure, as well as chronic hypertension with kidney damage. In addition, Hackman suffered from Alzheimer's disease. According to his medical history, Hackman had a pacemaker installed in 2019. He also had bypass surgery and an aortic valve replacement. It is also noted that Hackman was left without food. This is evidenced by the presence of acetone in the blood, caused by starvation in diabetes. As reported by the Regnum news agency, Hackman was found dead in his Santa Fe home on February 26. The police also found the body of his wife, 63-year-old pianist Betsy Arakawa. Experts concluded that Arakawa died on February 11, and Hackman a week later, on February 18. The actor, left alone, was probably unable to take care of himself. Hackman won his first Oscar for his role as William Friedkin in The French Connection (1971). He won his second for his role in Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven (1992). Hackman is also known for his roles in the films The Conversation (1974), Superman (1978), Mississippi Burning (1988), The Firm (1993), and The Royal Tenenbaums (2001). He has also co-authored the books Awakening the Perdido Star (1999), Justice for None (2004), Vermillion (2004), and Escape from Andersonville (2008) with Daniel Lenihan, and has released two solo albums, Payback at Morning Peak (2011) and Pursuit (2013).
